I am expecting a mortgage with Santander. I would like to enlist the help of a Licensed Conveyancer in Eccleston. Does the Santander Conveyancing panel allow for conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Santander approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, associated to the Council or Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.
Last December we completed a house move in Eccleston. We have noticed several problems with the house which we consider were omitted in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been carried out for conveyancing in Eccleston?
The query is not clear as what problems have arisen and if they are specific to conveyancing in Eccleston. Conveyancing searches and due diligence initiated during the legal transfer of property are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a seller fills in a form called a Seller’s Property Information Form. answers proves to be incorrect, then you may have a claim against the vendor for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Eccleston.
Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Eccleston costs more?
Eccleston leasehold conveyancing transactions usually involve additional investigations than freeholds including investigating the Lease, liaising with the Landlord such as serving appropriate notices on the Landlord or managing agent, obtaining up-to-date service charge and management information, obtaining Landlord’s consents and reviewing management accounts and formation documents.
Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my house can not be found. The lawyers who did the conveyancing in Eccleston 10 years ago no longer exist. What are my options?
Assuming you have a registered title the details of your ownership will be held by the Land Registry under a Title Number. It is easy to execute a search at the Land Registry, find your property and get up to date copies of the Registered Entries for a small fee. If the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will also normally hold a certified duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be retrieved for a small fee.
