Hampshire leasehold conveyancing transactions usually involve additional investigations than freeholds including investigating the Lease, liaising with the Landlord such as serving appropriate notices on the Landlord or managing agent, obtaining up-to-date service charge and management information, obtaining Landlord’s consents and reviewing management accounts and formation documents.

Is it the case that all Hampshire solicitors on the Nottingham conveyancing panel are regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?

As solicitors, in order to be on the Nottingham approved list of solicitors they would need to be overseen by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. Many mortgage companies do allow licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such organisation would be overseen by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.

Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Principality. Hampshire conveyancing solicitors are selected. How long does it take for Principality to forward the offer to the solicitor?

Some lenders take longer than others. Have Principality conducted the valuation? Have you informed Principality as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Principality conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

About to purchase maisonette 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 UBS 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 property lawyer is on the UBS conveyancing panel.

Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly picked up as part of conveyancing in Hampshire?

Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing 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…’

Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Hampshire ahead of retaining lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the property. Our surveyor has said that some lenders tend not give a mortgage on this type of premises.
