I am acquiring a maisonette in Droylsden. My Solicitor is not on the lender solicitor list. Can I still appoint my Droylsden conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the mortgage company panel?
Various options include
- Complete the deal with your chosen Droylsden solicitor but your mortgage company will undoubtedly use a property lawyer from their approved list. This will result in additional fees and probable frustration.
- Choose a fresh conveyancing practitioner to conduct the conveyancing, ensuring that they are on the bank conveyancing panel.
- Convince your conveyancing practitioner to pull out all the stops to join the mortgage company conveyancing panel
Having sold my house in Droylsden last February yet the purchaser is whats apping daily to moan that his solicitor needs to hear from mylawyer. What should have happened following completion?
Post completion of your sale your conveyancer should forward the transfer deeds and all supplemental paperwork to the purchaser's lawyers. Depending on the transaction, your solicitor must also confirm that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been paid off to the purchasers conveyancers. There are no post completion procedures just for conveyancing in Droylsden.
Do the Building Society Association intend to launch a searchable register to to identify law firms on the Loughborough BS conveyancing panel for example in Droylsden?

I am purchasing my first flat in Droylsden with a loan from Coventry Building Society. The sellers refused to move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead.

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.
We're novice buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the agent advised that the vendor will only issue a contract if we use their chosen solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a local conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Droylsden
It is improbable the owners are driving this. If they require ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and make the point that (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to use your preferred Droylsden conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothe ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a referral fee or achieve conveyancing targets set by corporate headquarters.
We are hoping to purchase a repression property in Droylsden and the mortgagee in possession require completion inside a month. Can a conveyancing practitioner complete in this timeframe? Would it be better to instruct a high street Droylsden firm or an online organisation that advertises to complete quickly?
Visit your Droylsden high street. Go in to a couple of firms and request to talk to a conveyancing solicitor for an estimate. Explain your requirements and seek assurances on speed. Select the firm that comes across as most efficient. You need to select a property lawyer on the list of property lawyers acceptable to your bank.
