Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Fradley

My mortgage broker has requested my Fradley lawyer’ panel member for the Nat West conveyancing panel. What is the best way to discover this. I have e-mailed my local Fradley branch but they don't know it.

You are best placed to get this information from your Fradley conveyancing practitioner . They maintain a central record lender panel numbers.

Can you clarify what the consequences are if my lawyer’s firm is removed from the Nationwide Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Fradley?

The first thing to point out is that, 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.

I decided to have a survey completed on a house in Fradley prior to retaining conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. My surveyor has said that some lenders tend refuse to grant a loan on this type of home.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Fradley. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

Given that I am about to part with £400,000 on a house in Fradley I wish to talk to a conveyancer about myconveyancing ahead of instructing the firm. Can this be arranged?

Do you have any advice for leasehold conveyancing in Fradley from the point of view of speeding up the sale process?

  • A significant proportion of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Fradley can be reduced if you appoint lawyers the minute your agents start marketing the property and request that they start to put together the leasehold documentation needed by the purchasers’ lawyers.
    • If there is a history of any disputes with your freeholder or managing agents it is very important that these are resolved before the property is put on the market. The buyers and their solicitors will be reluctant to purchase a flat where a dispute is ongoing. You may need to swallow your pride and discharge any arrears of service charge or resolve the dispute prior to completion of the sale. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled prior to the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You will still have to reveal details of the dispute to the buyers, but it is clearly preferable to reveal the dispute as over as opposed to ongoing. Some Fradley leases require Landlord’s consent to the sale and approval of the buyers. If this applies to your lease, you should place the estate agents on notice to make sure that the purchasers put in hand financial (bank) and professional references. Any bank reference will need to confirm that the buyers are financially capable of paying the yearly service charge and the actual amount of the service charge should be quoted in the bank’s letter. You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the actual amount of the service charge so that they can pass this information on to the purchasers or their lawyers. In the event that you altered the property did you need the Landlord’s approval? In particular have you installed wooden flooring? Fradley leases often stipulate that internal structural changes or laying down wooden flooring require a licence issued by the Landlord approving such works. Where you dont have the consents in place do not contact the landlord without contacting your lawyer in the first instance.
