Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Farnworth

We are buying a flat and need a conveyancing solicitor in Farnworth who is on the Nationwide solicitor panel. Can you recommend a local solicitor?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Nationwide . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Farnworth.

Please explain the implications if my solicitor is expelled from the TSB Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Farnworth?

First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

The deeds to our property can not be found. The conveyancers who conducted the conveyancing in Farnworth 10 years ago have long since closed. What are my next steps?

Gone are the days when you need to have the physical original deeds to prove you are the owner of your registered land or premises, given that the Land Registry hold details of all registered land or property electronically.

I'm buying my first flat in Farnworth with a loan from The Mortgage Works. The sellers would not move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The property agent suggested that I not disclose to my conveyancer about the side-deal as it will put at risk my loan with The Mortgage Works. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

Should I be concerned that estate agents that I am dealing with are encouraging me to use a nationwide conveyancing firm as opposed to a High Street Farnworth conveyancing company?

As is the case with many service providers, often input from connections can be worth their weight in gold. Nevertheless there are lots of people with a keen interest in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, financial adviser and banks might all suggest lawyers to choose. Sometimes the conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there is an underlying financial incentive behind the recommendation. You are at liberty to select your own lawyer. However, bear in mind that many mortgage providers specify a panel list of lawyers you have to use for the lender aspect of your transaction.

Is there a reason that Farnworth conveyancing costs are higher for leasehold and freehold properties?

Inevitably there is increased work required for leasehold conveyancing. Farnworth has many leasehold properties. There is more paperwork involved in the purchase: for example, the lease and leasehold information (including current service charge, ground rent and buildings insurance details) obtained from the freeholder or managing agents. There are strict criteria that the lease must meet in order to be acceptable to a mortgage company. If it does not meet these requirements, the lease must be amended, which can involve additional expense for the seller.
