Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hale Barns

I was notified yesterday by my mortgage broker that my Hale Barns the law firm I have appointed is not on the mortgage company Conveyancing panel. How can I be sure whether this is correct?

The first thing you need to do is to call your Hale Barns conveyancer. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to notify you of the situation. If they are not on the panel they may be able to suggest a Hale Barns conveyancing practice that is on the approved list of lawyers for your lender.

There is lots of information on this site regarding conveyancing in Hale Barns but what is your top tip for choosing the right conveyancer in Hale Barns

We would encourage you not to go for the cheapest Hale Barns conveyancing fees. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

Is there a list of Co-operative panel conveyancers in Hale Barns on the Council of Mortgage Lender’s Website?

Unfortunately not yet. There is no such facility on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association sites. A small selection of lending institutions make their panel listings viewable on the web. If you are in need of a Hale Barns property lawyer on the Co-operative please make the most of our tool.

It is not clear whether my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have called my Hale Barns bank branch on a couple of occasions and was advised it wasn't an issue and they would lend. My Hale Barns conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called to say that they refuse to lend in accordance with their published requirements. Who do I believe?

Provided that the property lawyer is on the mortgage company approved list, they must follow the CML Handbook specifications for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

I am downsizing from our house in Hale Barns and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any high street Hale Barns lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers instructed an online conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Hale Barns. We have lived in Hale Barns for many years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You need to 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)

How does conveyancing in Hale Barns differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Hale Barns contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because developers in Hale Barns usually acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Hale Barns or who has acted in the same development.

My husband and I are novice buyers - agreed a price, yet the property agent informed us that the seller will only move forward if we use their chosen lawyers as they need a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street solicitor who is accustomed to conveyancing in Hale Barns

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this demand. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to instruct your preferred Hale Barns conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthose that will give the negotiator at the agency a referral fee or meet his conveyancing figures set by head office.

Is it necessary during the course of the conveyancing process to attend the offices of the bank conveyancing panel solicitor to sign the mortgage deed? If so, I will appoint a lawyer who conducts conveyancing in Hale Barns so that I can attend their offices when needed.

Most conveyancing panel lawyers for the lender undertake all of the work via the post, internet or over the phone. This means that they can undertake your Conveyancing Transaction no matter where you live in England or Wales. YOu dont have to use a conveyancing solicitor in Hale Barns. it would nevertheless be wise to check if you can still book an appointment to go into appointed conveyancing lawyer if you prefer.
