Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Deddington

I opted for a Deddington based firm for our conveyancing in Deddington recently. After carefully reading the Terms and Conditions I notewe are on the hook for fees even if the sale aborts. Should I ditch them and instruct a web based conveyancing brokerage offering no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Deddington?

Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will generally be uplifted to neutralise the transactions that abort. You should be mindful that these promotions rarely cover outlay for example Deddington conveyancing search fees.

Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Deddington costs more?

In short, leasehold conveyancing in Deddington and Oxfordshire usually requires more work compared to freehold conveyancing. This includes reviewing the lease, liaising with the landlord concerning the service of appropriate notices, obtaining up-to-date service charge and management information, procuring the freeholder’s consents and reviewing management accounts. The obligations on both the landlord and the tenant in the lease need to be studied by the buyer’s conveyancing team and read from beginning to end – regardless of the fact the lease has passed through many different property solicitors hands since it was first entered into.

We previously appointed conveyancing lawyers locally in Deddington on the TSB solicitor approved list. They have just billed me an additional charge for dealing with the TSB mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by TSB?

Provided it is contained in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your solicitor may charge a fee for this. This charge is not set by TSB but by your Deddington solicitor. Numerous firms on the TSB panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but many practices incorporate it on their overall fee.

I have a mortgage with Kent Reliance for my property in Deddington. Conveyancing has been completed some time ago. In the event that I decide to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Kent Reliance?

Your original mortgage agreement with Kent Reliance will provide that you need their approval in advance of renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Kent Reliance’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies 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 lawyer.

My offer was accepted on an apartment in Deddington on 28/4/2025, valuation was booked 3 days later, received a clean bill of health. Property lawyer instructed, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Leeds Building Society and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. Are Leeds Building Society entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?

A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Leeds Building Society to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

I am buying a new build flat in Deddington. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Here are examples of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Deddington

    Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal.

I am a fortnight into a leasehold purchase having been directed to a firm by the selling agent to do our conveyancing in Deddington. We are not happy. Could you help me find new solicitors?

They would have to be really poor in order to consider diss instructing them. Has the loan offer been issued? In the event that it has you will need to make them aware of the new contact details and ensure the offer are re-issued. The solicitor ideally needs to be on the mortgage company approved list to avoid escalating costs and frustration. So that should be your starting point. The find a solicitor tool will help you find a bank approved lawyer for your home move in Deddington

I have checked your search tool I can't find the lawyer I was hoping to instruct as being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel. My lawyer has said that they are on the lender approved panel. How can I be sure given that they are not listed on your directory?

Not all firms are yet listed on our lender panel search tool which is still relatively new. Law firms are listing on a daily basis and it is probably the case that your lawyer is on the bank conveyancing lawyer and you should probably take them at their word. Please do feel free to suggest that they completing their listing on our site as it would only cost them £1 a month to list themselves as being on the bank solicitor panel.
