Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Grappenhall

My brother-in-law has suggested I instruct a conveyancing solicitor in Grappenhall. I I would like to check if they are on the Coventry Building Society conveyancing panel. Could you assist?

The first thing to do is e-mail the lawyer and enquire if they can act for the bank. Otherwise please call Coventry Building Society who may be able to help.

My solicitor has informed me that lack of planning permission insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Grappenhall conveyancing?

The appropriate level of lack of planning permission indemnity insurance depends on your lender. It would differ for example between Birmingham Midshires and Leeds Building Society. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.

When it comes to lenders such as Bank of Ireland, do Grappenhall solicitors have to pay a yearly amount to be on the conveyancing panel?

We are unaware of any mortgage company fees to register on their list of approved firms, although some do levy an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.

About to purchase flat in Grappenhall. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Santander conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Grappenhall conveyancing practitioner is on the Santander conveyancing panel.

Will my conveyancer be making enquiries concerning flooding as part of the conveyancing in Grappenhall.

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for lawyers specialising in conveyancing in Grappenhall. There are those who buy a property in Grappenhall, fully expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, leaving to one side the physical damage, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, suitable building insurance, or dispose of the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.

Solicitors are not best placed to give advice on flood risk, however there are a number of searches that may be initiated by the buyer or on a buyer’s behalf which can give them a better appreciation of the risks in Grappenhall. The conventional set of property information forms sent to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a usual question of the vendor to discover whether the premises has suffered from flooding. In the event that the premises has been flooded in past which is not disclosed by the vendor, then a buyer may commence a claim for damages as a result of such an misleading reply. The purchaser’s solicitors will also carry out an environmental report. This should disclose if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, additional investigations should be conducted.

I'm refinancing my primary house to a BTL mortgage with Godiva Mortgages Ltd and I will use the ballance of the raised equity as a down payment on further property. The area we are interested in is Grappenhall. Will your lawyers be able to act for the two banks and tie in the conveyances?

Do use our comparison tool on this page to be sure that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panels. Assuming that they are the lawyer should be able to simultaneously deal with the two deals but you should have a chat with you solicitor and specify your desired outcome and requirements.
