Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hampshire

Why is leasehold purchase conveyancing in Hampshire costs more?

In short, leasehold conveyancing in Hampshire and elsewhere usually involve additional due diligence compared to freehold conveyancing. This includes reviewing the lease, liaising with the landlord concerning serving appropriate notices, obtaining current service charge and management information, securing the landlord’s consents and reviewing management accounts. The obligations on both the landlord and the tenant in the lease need to be studied by the buyer’s conveyancing team and read from beginning to end – no matter how many different owners have owned the lease since it was first granted.

is it true that all Hampshire solicitor practices on the HSBC conveyancing panel are overseen by the SRA?

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the HSBC approved list of solicitors they would need to be governed by the SRA. Some banks do list licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such practice would be regulated by the CLC.

Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Co-operative. Hampshire conveyancing practitioners were appointed. How long does it take for Co-operative to send the offer to the property lawyer?

Some lenders take longer than others. Have Co-operative conducted the survey? Have you informed Co-operative as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Co-operative conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

Intending to buy a flat in Hampshire. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Nottingham 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 Hampshire lawyer is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.

Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Hampshire?

Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Hampshire. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’

I decided to have a survey carried out on a house in Hampshire in advance of instructing lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. Our surveyor has said that some banks may refuse to give a mortgage on such a home.

It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different instructions from Halifax. Should you wish to call us we can check with the relevant bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Hampshire. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
