I plan on buying a leasehold flat in Hackenthorpe. My Conveyancer is not on the bank solicitor list. Can I still continue with my Hackenthorpe conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the lender list of approved lawyers?
You must appoint a lawyer to complete the formalities when you take out a mortgage to purchase your property. They will carry out all the essential legal checks on the property, ensuring that you will be properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the required mortgage paperwork is in order. One could select a Hackenthorpe lawyer of your choosing. Nevertheless, if the property lawyer selected is not on the lender approved list additional costs will arise as separate legal representation will be required by them. Conveyancing panel applications can be submitted, so where your solicitor has not historically applied for membership they can do so.
AssumingI were to acquire a simple residential housein Hackenthorpe for cash and dispense with a survey and no local authority searches how much would I expect to to save on my conveyancing in Hackenthorpe?
Any savings you would make will be limited to the Hackenthorpe conveyancing searches. Your conveyancing practitioner is obliged to do the vast majority of work - money laundering, liaising with the sellers property lawyer, SDLT submission, register the ownership etc. A marginal saving might be made by not needing to register a charge but it will not be a lot.
It is a dozen years since I acquired my home in Hackenthorpe. Conveyancing lawyers have just been appointed on the sale but I am unable to track down my deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?
Don’t worry too much. First the deeds may be kept by your mortgage company or they could be in the possession of the conveyancers who acted in your purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the land will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Hackenthorpe involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your property is unregistered it is more tricky but is not insurmountable.

My hope is to acquire a garden maisonette in Hackenthorpe. Conveyancing solicitor has been awaiting, from the owner, building insurance schedule. I was told today I was advised that the vendor must forward the insurance schedule for the flat above as well. Why would my conveyancing practitioner want to check the insurance for the flat above? Is it really necessary? We have been waiting for the last fortnight…
It is not impossible in leasehold conveyancing in Hackenthorpe to find Conveyancing in Hackenthorpe in a minority of cases reveals that the lease obliges the leasehold owners to insure their individual flats rather than the freeholder insuring the complete property - which is definitely better. Do check with your conveyancing practitioner but it would appear that your conveyancer is attempting to verify that the whole building is insured. Insuring your residence is no help when it comes to rebuilding after a fire if the other flat cannot be reinstated for lack of insurance.
