Having been recommended your company we were going to go ahead with a conveyancing solicitor in Denham recommended on your site but stumbled across some other quotes on the internet appear less expensive – how come?
One can find lots of conveyancing organisations offering what appear to be cut price. We suggest that you think twice about how much you respect your own move to want to be penny wise pound foolish in relation to the standard of the legal work. Some embed fees deep into the terms and conditions. The solicitors that we list for conveyancing in Denham will notbehave this way.
We are about to exchange contracts for a semi detached house in Denham. We encountered a snag. The loan offer with Skipton Building Society runs out on 24/3/2025 but the sellers are insisting on a completion date of 26/3/2025. Is it possible to extend the loan offer?
The person best placed to deal with your question is your solicitors who will calculate if they better off negotiating with the bank, owner’s conveyancers, estate agents or possibly all parties based on the history of your transaction as of today.
Can you point me to a directory of Co-operative panel solicitors in Denham on the Building Society Association’s Website?
Unfortunately not yet. There is no such directory service on the CML or Building Society Association sites. Very few mortgage companies make their panel listings available on the web. If you are in need of a Denham lawyer on the Co-operative please use our tool.
is it true that all Denham solicitor firms on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel are regulated by the SRA?
As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Virgin Money approved list of solicitors they would need to be regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. Many lenders do list licenced conveyancers on their panel and in that case the practice would be governed by the CLC.
How can we tell if a Denham conveyancing solicitor on the Coventry BS panel is any good?
When it comes to conveyancing in Denham getting recommendations is a sensible start. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one advertising the lowest fees. We would always recommend that you speak with the solicitor carrying out your transaction.
I purchased a 4 bedroom Victorian property in Denham. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Barclays Direct. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the exact same property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Denham and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also enquire as to the situation with the conveyancing practitioner who completed the work.
How does conveyancing in Denham differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Denham come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because house builders in Denham typically purchase the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Denham or who has acted in the same development.
My brother has suggested that I use his lawyers for conveyancing in Denham. Do I follow his recommendation?
No doubt the best way to choose a conveyancing lawyer is to have guidance from friends or family who have actually experience in using the firm you're contemplating using.
