I am expecting a mortgage offer from Lloyds. I intend to employ the services of a Licensed Conveyancer in Hackney Marshes. Does the Lloyds Conveyancing panel include Licensed Conveyancers?

Can conveyancing in Hackney Marshes to be done inside two weeks?

In a situation where the seller is applying pressure to complete we would recommend that your conveyancer is familiar with the area as they will make use of local connections and know-how. It is even conceivable that they could have transacted otherhomes in the same street. You would be best advised to use a Hackney Marshes conveyancing firm. In addition, make sure that the conveyancing firm is on the lender panel. It is believed that just under twenty per cent of Hackney Marshes conveyancing deals are held up or derailed after finding out that a purchaser’s solicitor was not on their mortgage lender’s list of approved solicitors. In many cases this discovery resulted in the legal process being delayed by an average of 21 days. It is estimated that this issue affects approximately one hundred thousand home moves annually. Many Hackney Marshes conveyancing practices can not represent certain mortgage companies so do check as early as possible.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my house are lost. The solicitors who dealt with the conveyancing in Hackney Marshes 4 years ago have long since closed. What do I do?

Assuming the title is registered the details of your proprietorship will be held by the Land Registry under a Title Number. It is possible to execute a search at the Land Registry, locate your property and order up to date copies of the Registered Entries for less than a fiver. If the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will usually retain a certified duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be retrieved for £20 inclusive of VAT.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Hackney Marshes. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Hackney Marshes

    Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Please supply a car parking plan. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?

Last June I purchased a leasehold flat in Hackney Marshes. Do I have any liability for service charges relating to a period prior to my ownership?

Where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous lessee and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. However, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. A critical element of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to be sure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.

If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).

I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord to extend my lease without any joy. Can one apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Hackney Marshes conveyancing firm to represent me?

Most definitely. We can put you in touch with a Hackney Marshes conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement decision for a Hackney Marshes property is 12 Nutfield Road in July 2014. the Tribunal judged that the price to be paid by the applicants for the freehold interest should be £19,572 This case related to 2 flats. The remaining number of years on the lease was 72.02 years.

My son is just in the process of moving home, the home loan was agreed last week in principle. After the offer was accepted on flat we contacted the bank to progress the mortgage application. We were very surprised to hear that banks do not accept all property lawyer, they must be on their panel, is this correct?

Mortgage Companies tend to imposes restrictions either the type or the number of conveyancing firms on their panel. A common example of such restriction(s) being that a firm must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some have decided to limit the number of firms they use to represent them. You should note that banks have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any Hackney Marshes solicitor on their panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of conveyancing panels a few years ago and whilst there are differing views about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry reveal that thousands of law firms only carry out one or two conveyances a year. Those supporting conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms should have the right to be on a Lender panel when clearly, conveyancing is not their speciality. To put it another way; would you want a conveyancing solicitor to represent you if you were charged with a crime? Unlikely.
