I am obtaining a mortgage offer from Santander. I would like to use a Licensed Conveyancer in Enfield Town. Does the Santander Conveyancing panel include conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Santander conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders, represented by the Council or Mortgage Lenders or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
We were just about to sign contracts for a leasehold flat in Enfield Town. We encountered a problem. Our mortgage offer with Bank of Scotland runs out on 11/1/2027 but the sellers are insisting on a completion date of 13/1/2027. Is it possible to extend the mortgage expiry date?
The best person to deal with your issue is your solicitors who will hopefully determine if he or she is better off negotiating with the lender, seller’s solicitors, estate agents or indeed all parties given the circumstances your conveyancing as of today.
As someone clueless as to the Enfield Town conveyancing process what is the number one tip you can give me concerning the home moving process in Enfield Town
You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Enfield Town and elsewhere in England and Wales is often a confrontational process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is an abundance of room for conflict between you and other parties involved in the house moving process. E.g., the vendor, selling agent and even potentially a bank. Selecting a solicitor for your conveyancing in Enfield Town is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE party in the legal process whose responsibility is to act in your legal interests and to keep you safe.
There is a distinct ongoing adversarial element to conveyancing- someone has to be blamed for the process taking so long. You should always trust your lawyer ahead of the other parties when it comes to the legal assignment of property.
It has been four months since my purchase conveyancing in Enfield Town concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site 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.

We're FTB’s - agreed a price, but the estate agent has warned us that the owners will only move forward if we use the agent's preferred conveyancers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Enfield Town
We suspect that the owner is not behind this request. If they want ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the vendors direct and make the point that (a)you are motivated purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to instruct your own,trusted Enfield Town conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn the estate agent a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing figures pre-set by head office.
