Recently asked questions about conveyancing in De Beauvoir Town

At long last a mortgage agreement from NatWest for the remortgage of my single room garden flat is coming any day now. Are you able to suggest a cheap conveyancing lawyer in De Beauvoir Town?

You are on the wrong site if you are seeking the cheapest conveyancing in De Beauvoir Town. We can offer you cost effective conveyancing but we do not work with the cheapest lawyers. Resist the temptation to appoint companies seducing you with £100 conveyancing in De Beauvoir Town. Optimistically, in being led by low cost conveyancing, you will get your money’s worth and at worst you will end up being stung for extras and still not receive the service you were hoping for.

Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in De Beauvoir Town costs more?

The conveyancing charges for a leasehold property in De Beauvoir Town is frequently greater than on a freehold residence. This is because there is an amount of additional work necessary in liaising with the freeholder and management company to obtain information concerning whether the rent and maintenance fee have been discharged and whether there are any large sums expected to be spent in the near future on repairs or maintenance of the building.

What is your number one tip for choosing a conveyancing solicitor in De Beauvoir Town

It would be unwise to be seduced by the cheapest De Beauvoir Town conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of the deal.

We previously chose conveyancing lawyers based in De Beauvoir Town on the Nationwide solicitor approved list. They have just invoiced me a further amount for dealing with the Nationwide mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Nationwide?

Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or Quote then yes your lawyer can levy a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by Nationwide but by your De Beauvoir Town property lawyer. Numerous firms on the Nationwide panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but some firms incorporate it on their overall fee.

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with HSBC. I assume I don't need a De Beauvoir Town lawyer on the HSBC panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?

If you have finished paying off your HSBC mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the HSBC mortgage from the register. HSBC, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:

  1. but are not moving to another property
  2. where HSBC has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. HSBC has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your HSBC mortgage has been paid off.

I'm buying my first flat in De Beauvoir Town with a mortgage from Yorkshire Building Society. The sellers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep advised me not inform my lawyer about this extras as it will impact my mortgage with Yorkshire Building Society. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I have been pointed in your direction by a number of estate agents in De Beauvoir Town to find a property lawyer using your seach tool. What’s the financial advantage for Estate Agents to market your services rather than alternative conveyancing organisations?

We don’t offer any commission for sending work in our direction. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission as a client could think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

We own a leasehold flat in De Beauvoir Town. Conveyancing was finished in 2011. I have read on a number of consumer forums that I mustn’t let the lease length get too low. Why is that a problem?

De Beauvoir Town residential long term leases are for a prescribed period - often ninety nine years when they commenced. However many flats in De Beauvoir Town were built or converted in the 60’s and so these leases now have fewer than 80 years left to run. That may seem like a long time but Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage companies generally require leases to have at least 75 years left to be mortgageable. This means that when you come to sell the property you will need to extend the term of your lease if you are approaching seventy five years. To optimize the marketability of your property you should be thinking about whether to extend your lease well in advance of selling the property. Furthermore strong financial reasons to taking action before the lease hits eighty years as when the lease is below 80 years the amount to be paid to extend starts to get a lot more expensive.
