My apartment in Eastleigh is up for sale and I have accepted an offer. Will my conveyancer need to be on the RBS conveyancing panel in order to deal with redeeming my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the RBS conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their conditions fairly frequently currently.
I am helping my mother sell her property in Eastleigh. Does the conveyancer commission the EPC or it is for me to see to?
Following the demise of Home Information Packs, EPC’s was left as a required element of selling a house. An EPC should be commissioned in advance of the property being placed on the market. It is not a task that law firms normally arrange. Where you are using a Eastleigh conveyancing practitioner they may help arrange energy performance certificates given their contacts with long established Eastleigh assessors
Can I be sure that the Eastleigh conveyancing solicitor on the Nottingham panel is any good?
When it comes to conveyancing in Eastleigh obtaining recommendations is a good starting point. 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 which is cheap as chips. We would always recommend that you speak with the solicitor conducting your conveyancing.
We expect to receive a OIP from Skipton this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Skipton recommend any Eastleigh solicitors on the Skipton conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Eastleigh solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Skipton conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Skipton through the process.
I have been told that property searches are a common cause of obstruction in Eastleigh house deals. Is that correct?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published findings of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the most frequent causes of hindrances during the legal transfer of property. Searches are not likely to feature in any delay in conveyancing in Eastleigh.
