I am helping my niece sell her flat in Edith Weston. Will the conveyancer commission the energy performance certificate or should I organise this?

I have instructed a Edith Weston property lawyer having checked that they are on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Virgin Money will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Virgin Money will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your conveyancing practitioner will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Edith Weston postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Virgin Money, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Edith Weston.
TSB have agreed my home loan in principle, my bid on a apartment in Edith Weston has been agreed to, what happens next?
The property agent will need to be informed of your conveyancing practitioner's details (be sure the conveyancing practitioners are on the lender’s approved list). Telephone TSB or your broker and finish off any outstanding forms. TSB will appoint a valuer who will get in contact with the estate agent or seller to schedule a time for the valuation to happen. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average a fortnight to receive the mortgage offer. TSB will issue the offer to you and your lawyers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Edith Weston.

Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Edith Weston.

How does conveyancing in Edith Weston differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Edith Weston contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because new home sellers in Edith Weston 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Edith Weston or who has acted in the same development.
