It has come to my attention via my lender that my Ferring lawyer is not on the mortgage company Conveyancing panel. What can I do to be sure if this is correct?
The sensible course of action for you to take is to contact your Ferring lawyer directly. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to advise you what has happened. If they are not on the panel they may recommend you to a Ferring conveyancing firm that is on the conveyancing panel for your mortgage company.
We are acquiring a new build flat in Ferring and my lawyer is informing me that she has to the mortgage company to disclose incentives from the seller. I am under pressure to exchange contracts and I have no desire to delay matters. is my lawyer playing by the book?
You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your lawyer. A precondition to being on a mortgage company panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.
When can the exchange of contracts happen for sale conveyancing in Ferring and do I need to be at the solicitors branch?
If you are round the corner to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Ferring you are invited in to sign the paperwork. That being said, the firms we work with offer countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide just as diligent and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The executing of the sale agreement is not the critical part. A signed contract is just a prerequisite for the solicitor to officially exchange at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Ferring)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
I am planning to acquire a property and require a conveyancing solicitor in Ferring who is on the Godiva Mortgages Ltd solicitor. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a firm?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Godiva Mortgages Ltd in certain locations such as Ferring. We dont recommend any particular firm.
We are aiming to move house in August. Should my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Ferring. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen prior to coming across your website.
On the day of completion you can pick up the keys from your property agent but this can only happen after the previous owners conveyancers confirm to the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be collected. After that you can inform the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal organisation but can help you choose a conveyancing in Ferring or a lawyer with expertise in conveyancing in Ferring.
We are getting the release of further monies on our mortgage from RBS as we want to carry out alterations to our home in Ferring. Are we obliged to appoint a bricks and mortar Ferring solicitor on the RBS conveyancing panel to handle the legals?
RBS don't usually require a member of their approved list of lawyers to handle the formalities. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the RBS conveyancing panel.
Planning on purchasing a flat in Ferring. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the UBS conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Ferring solicitor is on the UBS conveyancing panel.
I am intent on selling our property in Ferring and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any high street Ferring lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using a national conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Ferring. Having lived in Ferring for six years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain clarification need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should 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)
