I just bought a property at auction in Danbury. Conveyancing is necessary. What are my next steps?
Having exchanged you should instruct a conveyancing solicitor quickly as you are faced with a fast approaching deadline in which to complete the conveyancing. An auction property should have a corresponding auction set of papers. This will likely include evidence of title and search results. In the case of leasehold property the auction papers may contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing paperwork relating to leasehold premises. You must hand this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor as soon as possible. Do make sure that your finances are in place to complete on the on the contractual date .
Are all Danbury Conveyancing Quality Solicitors on the Barclays conveyancing panel?
It is true that some lenders now utilise the accreditation scheme as the kick off point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander.

I have a mortgage with Kent Reliance for my property in Danbury. Conveyancing was finalised months ago. In the event that I decide to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Kent Reliance?
You must advise Kent Reliance prior to renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Kent Reliance’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Kent Reliance will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Kent Reliance directly. You need not do this via a Kent Reliance conveyancing panel solicitor.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Danbury is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Danbury are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Danbury you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Danbury may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
