We are downsizing from our home in Fetcham and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers instructed a web based conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Fetcham. Having lived in Fetcham for many years we know that this is a non issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to obtain confirmation that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? 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 ailment)
The deeds to our home are lost. The conveyancers who handled the conveyancing in Fetcham 10 years ago no longer exist. Will I be able to sell the house?
In today’s world there are duplicates made of almost everything, and your conveyancer should be aware exactly where to find all the relevant documentation so you can buy or dispose of your house without any difficulty. If duplicates can’t be found, your conveyancer may be able to arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities protecting you against future claims on your premises.
How does conveyancing in Fetcham differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Fetcham come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because house builders in Fetcham typically buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Fetcham or who has acted in the same development.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Fetcham is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Fetcham are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Fetcham you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Fetcham may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the estate agent advised that the seller will only go ahead if we use their recommended conveyancers as they need a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a family conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Fetcham
It is highly unlikely the vendors are behind this. Should the vendor want ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to use your own,trusted Fetcham conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a commission or achieve conveyancing thresholds set by corporate headquarters.
