We are aiming to move house in December. Does my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in Gorton. Conveyancing firm was chosen prior to coming across this site.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from the estate agent but this can only take place once the vendors solicitors inform the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be collected. After that you will need to inform the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal company but can assist you in choosing a residential property solicitor in Gorton or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Gorton.
My wife and I are at the point of viewing houses in Gorton and I am about to put in an offer. Is it too early to have a solicitor in place? I am planning to take a home loan with Lloyds.
You should start obtaining conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their details on to the selling agent. Given that you are getting a mortgage with Lloyds, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Lloyds conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.
I have instructed a Gorton lawyer having checked that they are on the Skipton conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Skipton will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Skipton will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your conveyancing practitioner will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Gorton postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Skipton, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Gorton.
I am looking for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Gorton I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Gorton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
Should you need a home loan that many years may be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
