Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Eltham

Willusing a Eltham conveyancing practice make the legal transfer of property easier?

Eltham is a special area, where regional experience is a big bonus. The laid-back lifestyle has an upside – just not when it comes to your conveyancing. The conveyancers that we endorse display deep Eltham intelligence with a positive, hands-onattitude that helps everything runs smoothly. It is a distinct advantage that they enjoy well established relationships with financial advisers, search providers, surveyors and other Eltham conveyancing practices

There are numerous conveyancing solicitors in Eltham but how do I know who's good?

It would be unwise to be tempted by the lowest Eltham conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in advance.

I am assisting my mother sell her house in Eltham. Will the conveyancer commission an energy performance certificate or it is for me to coordinate?

Following the abolition of HIPs, EPC’s remained a required part of selling a house. An EPC needs to be to hand prior to the property being marketed. This is not a task that law firms normally arrange. Where you are using a Eltham conveyancing lawyer they might be able to arrange energy assessments given their contacts with long established Eltham assessors

When it comes to lenders such as Lloyds, do Eltham lawyers face an annual charge to be on the list of approved solicitors?

We are unaware of any lender fees to be on their list of approved firms, although some do levy an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.

My partner and I are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our property in Eltham and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed an online conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Eltham. We have lived in Eltham for three years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to get confirmation need.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. What do they say? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Eltham I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, however it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Eltham for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.

Are there any apps to help search for a Eltham law firm on the Platform Home Loans Ltd conveyancing panel? I have a car and am willing to travel upto 20kilometers to meet the solicitor.

You can use the facility on this page. Please select a lender and your location and you will see a number of Eltham conveyancing lawyers locally. We have listed some Eltham conveyancing firms at the bottom of this page and you can ring them to check whether they are on the Platform Home Loans Ltd panel

We're first time buyers - agreed a price, yet the selling agent informed us that the seller will only move forward if we appoint the agent's preferred lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Eltham

It is highly unlikely the sellers are behind this. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are genuine purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to instruct your preferred Eltham conveyancing firm - as opposed tothose that will provide their negotiator at the agency a commission or achieve conveyancing figures pre-set by HQ.
