Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Goodmayes

Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my solicitor in Goodmayes is not identified on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the standard of his work?

It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator indicated 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) lack of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should contact the Goodmayes conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your lender.

Please help. My Goodmayes solicitor is informing me me that he is legally obliged toapply for Goodmayes conveyancing searches resulting from the fact thatthe firm are on the HSBCapproved lawyer panel. Is my lawyer correct?

Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. Given that you are taking out a loan with a lender your conveyancer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook specifications . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Goodmayes conveyancing searches.

My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Goodmayes. Conveyancing is required. What is next?

Having for all intents and purposes signed on the dotted line you must retain a conveyancing lawyer soon as you are facing a fast approaching deadline in which to complete the transaction. Every auction property should have a corresponding auction set of papers. This should include evidence of title and search results. In the case of leasehold property the conveyancing papers may provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing paperwork specific to a leasehold property. You must pass this on to the lawyer instructed by you as soon as possible. You also need to ensure that your finances are in order to complete on the on the contractual date .

My wife and I purchasing a 4 bedroom semi-detached house in Goodmayes. Our aim is to carry out an extension to the side at the property.Will the conveyancing process involve checks to determine if these works are permitted?

Your conveyancer should review the deeds as conveyancing in Goodmayes will on occasion reveal restrictions in the title documents which restrict certain works or require the permission of a 3rd party. Many extensions need local authority planning permissions and approval under the building regulations. Many locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or affect extensions. You should check these issues with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.

I'm the single beneficiary of my late grandmother’s estate and I have everything in my name now, including the house in Goodmayes. The Goodmayes property was put into my name in September. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship could be regarded the same way as though I had purchased the house in September. Do I have to wait half a year to sell?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook instructs solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be affected by that. Most mortgage companies would take a sensible view as this obligation principally exists to capture subsales or the quick reselling of property.

I require fast conveyancing in Goodmayes as I am under pressure to exchange contracts inside one month. Thankfully I do not need a mortgage. Can I avoid the conveyancing searches to save money and time?

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent advised that the seller will only issue a contract if we instruct the agent's chosen solicitors as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Goodmayes

It is unlikely the owners are driving this. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated purchaser is likely to cause more damage than good. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to appoint your preferred Goodmayes conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will earn the estate agent a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing figures demanded by HQ.
