We chose a high street lawyer for my conveyancing in Harlington today. Looking through the Terms and Conditions I seewe are responsible for charges even if the movedoes not happen. Would I be best advised to instruct a web based conveyancing company offering no completion no charge conveyancing in Harlington?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to cover those transactions that fail to complete. Also remember that such offerings generally do not cover disbursements e.g. Harlington conveyancing search charges.
In the event thatI was to acquire a simple residential housein Harlington mortgage fee and have no survey and no conveyancing searches how much should I expect to have to pay for conveyancing in Harlington?
The sole saving you would make on is the Harlington conveyancing searches. The conveyancing practitioner still got to do everything else - money laundering, communicating with the sellers solicitor, SDLT return, register the ownership etc. A slight saving might be made by not having to register a charge but it will not be a lot.
My solicitor has informed me that defective lease insurance is required on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Harlington conveyancing?
The right level of defective lease indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Nationwide Building Society and Leeds Building Society. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.
My offer was accepted on a property in Harlington on 18/2/2025, valuation was booked 4 days after, all came back fine. Solicitor instructed, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to TSB and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the TSB conveyancing panel. Are TSB entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for TSB to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the TSB conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
