I can't travel far from Enfield Wash. Is there a reason why all Enfield Wash solicitors are not on all lender panels?
Mortgage companies point to the fact that solicitor-led fraud is considered to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud every year.The removal of law firms from lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the Financial Services Authority in 2011. Its outcome included recommendations for lenders to review their conveyancing panels, which kicked off a major policy change in the sector. This resulted in mortgage companies culling less reputable firms from their books of approved lawyers .
Last October we completed a house move in Enfield Wash. We have noticed several issues with the house which we believe were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? What searches should? have been conducted for conveyancing in Enfield Wash?
It is not clear from the question as to the nature of the problems and if they are relate to conveyancing in Enfield Wash. Conveyancing searches and due diligence undertaken as part of the legal transfer of property are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a seller completes a form called a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information provided is inaccurate, you could possibly take legal action against the seller for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Enfield Wash.
I am intent on selling our property in Enfield Wash and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. A high street Enfield Wash conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed a nationwide conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Enfield Wash. We have lived in Enfield Wash for six years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You need to check with 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 illness)
Just bought a semi-detached house in Enfield Wash , how long will it take for the Land Registry to register my title? My Enfield Wash conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be sure that my ownership is recorded.
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Enfield Wash registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any 3rd parties. At present in the region of 80% of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Historically registration is effected after the purchaser has moved in to the premises so an expedited registration is not typically primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer can contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
