I was notified recently by my lender that my Fetcham property lawyer is not on the lender Conveyancing panel. What can I do to check?
The first thing you need to do is to contact your Fetcham lawyer directly. You lawyer should advise you of the situation. Where they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the conveyancing panel for your bank.
Is it necessary during the course of the conveyancing process to pop into the offices of the solicitor to execute the legal charge? If so, I will instruct a firm who offer conveyancing in Fetcham so that I can attend their offices when needed.
These days approved lawyers for banks undertake all of the communications via Royal Mail, internet or over phone calls. This enables them to undertake the legal work for your home move no matter where you live in the country. However you should see if you have the option of visiting the offices of your conveyancing lawyer if needed.
My partner and I are planning on selling our property in Fetcham and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. A high street Fetcham lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a factory type conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Fetcham. Having lived in Fetcham for three years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. What do they say? You need to enquire of 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)
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly picked up during conveyancing in Fetcham?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Fetcham. 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 was advised by numerous property agents in Fetcham to locate a conveyancer using your seach tool. What’s the financial incentive for Estate Agents to recommend your services rather than alternative conveyancing organisations?
We refuse to offer any financial incentive for directing people to this site. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission because members of the public would think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
I have been searching for Fetcham conveyancing quotes online. Can I be assured that all the Fetcham law firms that are listed on your site are on the lender conveyancing panel?
The law firms listed on our site have assured us via an online form that they are on the bank panel and agreed to advise us to take down their listing in the event of removal off of the mortgage company panel. To date we have not been informed by either a lender or a member of the public that the data about a specific Fetcham conveyancing solicitor being on the bank conveyancing panel is incorrect.
