As someone not used to conveyancing in Deal what is the number one tip you can impart concerning the legal transfer of property in Deal

You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Deal and elsewhere in England and Wales is an adversarial process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is plenty of opportunity for confrontation between you and other parties involved in the legal transfer of property. For instance, the seller, selling agent and even potentially the mortgage company. Selecting a law firm for your conveyancing in Deal is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE person in the process whose responsibility is to look after your legal interests and to keep you safe.

There is a worrying increase in the "blame" culture- someone has to be at fault for the process being so protracted. We recommend that you must always trust your lawyer ahead of all other parties in the conveyancing process.

I am assisting my step-mother sell her flat in Deal. Will the conveyancer arrange the EPC or it is for the seller to coordinate?

After the demise of HIPs, EPC’s was retained a mandatory component of moving house. An EPC should be commissioned prior to the property being advertised. It is not a task that law firms ordinarily arrange.

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Deal. I have a mortgage agreed with Bank of Ireland. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Bank of Ireland, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel.

I've read lots of house buying guides, I note that they all recommend that you should get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Deal solicitor - who is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. is that correct?

Yorkshire BS will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Yorkshire BS will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your property lawyer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Deal postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Yorkshire BS, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Deal.

With lots of history conveyancing in Deal the following are instances of issues that can appear and adversely affect the marketability of the property: Enforcement Notices, Overdue Fees, Outstanding Grants, Railway Schemes,...

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Deal. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.

Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.

Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Deal before appointing lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the property. Our surveyor advised that some mortgage companies will not give a loan on a flying freehold premises.
