We are buying a flat and need a conveyancing solicitor in Hainault who is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. Can you recommend a local firm?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Coventry BS . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Hainault.
What is the difference between a licensed conveyancer and conveyancing solicitor in Hainault
Two types of professional can execute conveyancing in Hainault namely CLC regulated conveyancers or solicitors. The two can provide conveyancing services that required to complete the sale or acquisition of property. Both are required to perform Hainault conveyancing to the same quality and guidelines so you can be sure that your conveyancing will be properly administered and that all requisite steps will be correctly attended to.
We are due to move house in April. Does my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Hainault. Conveyancing lawyer was organised prior to coming across this page.
On the afternoon of completion you can collect the house keys from the estate agent however this should only happen when the sellers lawyers advise the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be given over. Subsequently you will need to tell the removal company that they can start moving you in. We are not in a position to suggest a specific removal company but can help you locate a residential property solicitor in Hainault or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Hainault.
We are getting the release of further funds on our home loan from Santander as we intend to carry out alterations to our property in Hainault. Do we need to select a high street Hainault solicitor on the Santander conveyancing panel to handle the legals?
Santander do not ordinarily require a member of their conveyancing panel to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Santander panel.
My wife and I are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our house in Hainault and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. A high street Hainault lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a web based conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Hainault. Having lived in Hainault for 5 years we know that this is a non issue. Do we contact our local Authority to obtain confirmation that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)
five months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Hainault completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Hainault. Conveyancing is a frightening process 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 legal work.
Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Hainault
-
If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme.
Back In 2000, I bought a leasehold flat in Hainault. Conveyancing and Clydesdale mortgage organised. A letter has just been received from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. It included a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1995. The conveyancing practitioner in Hainault who acted for me is not around. What should I do?
The first thing you should do is contact HMLR to be sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is indeed the registered owner of the freehold reversion. You do not need to instruct a Hainault conveyancing practitioner to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for less than a fiver. You should note that in any event, even if this is the rightful landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.
After years of dialogue we simply can't agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Hainault. Does the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal have jurisdiction to calculate the appropriate figures?
Most certainly. We can put you in touch with a Hainault conveyancing firm who can help.
An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement matter before the tribunal for a Hainault flat is 201 & 201a St. Barnabas Road in October 2013. The Tribunal decided that the price to be paid by the Applicants for the freehold interest is £20,071. This case was in relation to 2 flats. The unexpired lease term was 69.26 years.
