Willusing a Epworth conveyancing solicitor make the home moving process easier?
Established third party connections is an important consideration when appointing conveyancing lawyers. Epworth conveyancers often have long term relationships with mortgage brokers and agents, local authorities, surveyors and other law firms meaning you will move in shortest possible time. Having a wealth of insight into the local area also helps too.
I am hoping to move into my new home in Epworth next Monday. My property lawyer now wants me to supply her with proof of content and building insurance for the property as he says that he has to check this in his capacity as lawyer for the bank. What does the insurance need to cover?
All property lawyers on acting for mortgage companies would need to check that the following risks are covered fire; lightning; aircraft; explosion; earthquake; storm; flood; escape of water or oil; riot; malicious damage; theft or attempted theft; falling trees and branches and aerials; subsidence; heave;landslip;collision;accidental damage to underground services;professional fees, demolition and site clearance costs; and public liability to anyone else. There are some other issues such as the level of excess that are set out in a lender’s UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions. These obligations are not limited to conveyancing in Epworth.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly picked up during conveyancing in Epworth?
Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Epworth. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
I opted to have a survey completed on a property in Epworth prior to retaining conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. The surveyor advised that some mortgage companies tend refuse to give a loan on such a house.

My in 2006. He has been wed, widowed and has recently remarried. He now wishes to the sell the Epworth property. I suspect that he will just be need to provide a copy of the marriage certificates to the solicitor but he is anxious it will delay the sale of the apartment. Is it worth updating the Land Registry information for the house?
You are not required to update the register as long as you have the evidence required to show how the name change has come about.
The buyer’s conveyancer will examine the land registry details and need evidence to establish the change of name for example marriage documentation.
