Do I select a Licenced Conveyancer or Solicitor for conveyancing in Edenthorpe?

I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in February 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Coventry BS are being problematic. The Edenthorpe solicitor who is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Coventry BS are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Coventry BS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Coventry BS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Coventry BS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

A colleague recommended that if I am buying in Edenthorpe I should carry out a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?

A search of this type is sometimes included in the estimate for your Edenthorpe conveyancing searches. It is a large report of about 40 pages, listing and setting out significant information about Edenthorpe around the property and the people living there. It incorporates an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the Edenthorpe Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime details, Edenthorpe Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information about Edenthorpe.

3 months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Edenthorpe completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

How does conveyancing in Edenthorpe differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Edenthorpe contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is ready to move into. This is because house builders in Edenthorpe tend to purchase the site, 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 Edenthorpe or who has acted in the same development.

Due to the input of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Edenthorpe ahead of appointing lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. Our surveyor has said that some lenders may not give a loan on this type of property.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Lloyds has different instructions for example to Nationwide. If you call us we can check via the appropriate lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Edenthorpe. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Edenthorpe to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.
