Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Frodsham

My wife and I swapping mortgage lender for our flat in Frodsham with Nottingham. We have a son approaching twenty who lives at home. Our solicitor has asked us to disclose anyone over the age of 17 other than ourselves who reside at the property. Our lawyer has now e-mailed a document for our son to sign, giving up any rights in the event that the property is repossessed. I have two questions (1) Is this document specific to the Nottingham conveyancing panel as he never had to sign this form when we remortgaged 5 years ago (2) In signing this form is our son in any way compromising his right to inherit the property?

On the face of it your lawyer has done nothing wrong as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to Nottingham. This is solely used to protect Nottingham if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son’s right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of Nottingham had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.

As a FTB what is the most important piece of guidance you can impart about purchase conveyancing in Frodsham?

Not many law firms or advisers will tell you this but conveyancing in Frodsham and elsewhere in England and Wales is an adversarial process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there is lots of room for friction between you and other parties involved in the ownership transfer. E.g., the vendor, selling agent and on occasion your mortgage company. Choosing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Frodsham should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE party in the process whose responsibility is to act in your legal interests and to keep you safe.

We are witnessing a definite ongoing adversarial element to conveyancing- someone has to be at fault for the process being so protracted. We recommend that you should always trust your conveyancer above the other parties in the home moving process.

We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to instruct their panel conveyancer as I would much rather instruct a Frodsham based conveyancing firm?

You should check but the the likelihood is that appoint one of their panel conveyancers should you accept the "fee-free" deal. Speak to the bank to see if they make available a monetary alternative. In the past a few lenders offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor near Frodsham.

Can you point me to a directory of Yorkshire BS panel conveyancers in Frodsham on the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook Website?

Unfortunately not yet. There is no such directory service on the CML or Building Society Association websites. A small selection of mortgage companies make their panel listings viewable over the internet. Where you are seeking to appoint a Frodsham property lawyer on the Yorkshire BS please make the most of our facility.

Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Aldermore. Frodsham conveyancing solicitors are instructed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Aldermore?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Aldermore done the valuation? Have you advised Aldermore as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Aldermore conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

The mortgage over my property is with UBS for my property in Frodsham. Conveyancing was finalised months ago. If I am intending to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform UBS?

UBS must be informed of your intention in advance of letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of UBS’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will allow you to rent out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact UBS directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a UBS conveyancing panel lawyer.

I moved into my home on 3 March and my personal details are still not registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Frodsham expressed confidence that it would be recorded inside ten days. Are titles in Frodsham particularly slow to register?

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Frodsham registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any other parties. As of today roughly three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration is effected once the new owner is living at the premises thus 'speed' is not usually an essential issue yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor must contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

We are 18 days into a residential purchase having been recommend to conveyancers by the estate agent to execute conveyancing in Frodsham. I am am very dissatisfied with the quality of service. Could you you assist me in finding new lawyers?

A conveyancer would have to be really bad to suggest diss instructing them. Has the mortgage been sent? If so you must make them aware of the new contact details and have the mortgage documents are issued to the new lawyers. Your new conveyancer needs to be on the banks panel to avoid escalating charges and frustration. That should be your starting point.
