As someone with no idea as to conveyancing in Gorton what is your top tip you can impart concerning the house moving process in Gorton

You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Gorton or throughout England and Wales is an adversarial process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of room for confrontation between you and others involved in the house moving process. For example, the seller, selling agent and sometimes your lender. Selecting a lawyer for your conveyancing in Gorton should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY party in the legal process whose responsibility is to act in your best interests and to protect you.

What is your number one tip for finding a conveyancing solicitor in Gorton

We would encourage you not to go for the cheapest Gorton conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

We are getting the release of further monies on our home loan from Yorkshire BS as we want to carry out a loft conversion to our property in Gorton. Do we need to select a local Gorton solicitor on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel to deal with the paperwork?

I have finally had an offer on a flat in Gorton agreed to, but there is a chain. The owners have placed an offer on somewhere, but it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other flats in the pipeline. I have chosen a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Gorton. What do I do now? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Kent Reliance?

It is normal to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is approx £1k, then survey, Gorton conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is ensure that your solicitor is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. As to the next steps this very much depends on the circumstances of your transaction, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. During a hot market some home buyers will apply for a home loan with Kent Reliance and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their conveyancer to proceed with the conveyancing in Gorton.

Me and my brother own a semi-detached Georgian house in Gorton. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Godiva Mortgages Ltd. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the matching address. Is it worth asking Godiva Mortgages Ltd to clarify?

You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Gorton and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also question the situation with your conveyancing practitioner who carried out the work.
