As someone unfamiliar with conveyancing in Enfield Lock what is your top tip you can impart concerning the legal transfer of property in Enfield Lock
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Enfield Lock and elsewhere in England and Wales is often a confrontational experience. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there is an abundance of opportunity for conflict between you and other parties involved in the transaction. E.g., the seller, property agent and even potentially the mortgage company. Appointing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Enfield Lock should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE party in the legal process whose responsibility is to look after your best interests and to protect you.
We are witnessing a distinct increase in the "blame" culture- someone has to be at fault for the process taking so long. You your first instinct should be to trust your conveyancer ahead of all other parties when it comes to the legal assignment of property.
We are due to move property in July. Does my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you suggest a removal company in Enfield Lock. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across your page.
On the day of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from your property agent however this should only take place once the vendors lawyers confirm to the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be handed over. Subsequently you will need to tell the removal company that they can start moving you in. We do not recommend a particular removal organisation but can assist you in locating a conveyancing in Enfield Lock or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Enfield Lock.
My husband and I have organised a further advance on our mortgage from Leeds Building Society as we wish to conduct a loft conversion to our house in Enfield Lock. Are we obliged to select a nearby Enfield Lock solicitor on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel to handle the legals?
Leeds Building Society don't usually appoint a member of their conveyancing panel to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Leeds Building Society list.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with UBS. I assume I don't need a Enfield Lock lawyer on the UBS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your UBS mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the UBS mortgage from the register. UBS, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where UBS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- UBS has instructed the Land Registry to do so

How does conveyancing in Enfield Lock differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Enfield Lock approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because new home sellers in Enfield Lock typically acquire 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 Enfield Lock or who has acted in the same development.
