Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hartford

We instructed a local lawyer for our conveyancing in Hartford yesterday. Reviewing the Ts and Cs it is apparent thatI am responsible for fees even if the sale aborts. Would I be best advised to use a web based solicitor practice advertising no completion no cost conveyancing in Hartford?

It is usually a trade off in that if "No Sale No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be uplifted to counteract the conveyances that fail to complete. Do bear in mind that these offerings rarely protect you from disbursements such your Hartford conveyancing search fees.

IfI were to acquire a straightforward propertyin Hartford for cash and have no survey and no local authority searches how much would I expect to to save on my conveyancing in Hartford?

The only saving you would achieve is the Hartford conveyancing searches. Your conveyancer still got to do everything else - money laundering, correspond with the sellers solicitor, SDLT return, register the ownership etc. You might save a bit for them not needing to register a charge however it won't be meaningful.

My partner and I are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our house in Hartford and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. Any local conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a nationwide conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Hartford. Having lived in Hartford for many years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must check with 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 illness)

I opted to have a survey completed on a property in Hartford in advance of retaining lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. The surveyor has said that some banks tend refuse to give a mortgage on this type of premises.

It depends who your proposed lender is. HSBC has different instructions for example to Halifax. Should you wish to telephone us we can look into this further with the relevant mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Hartford. Conveyancing will be smoother if you use a solicitor in Hartford especially if they regularly deal with such properties in Hartford.

I am a sole trader planning to lease a unit on a shopping parade. Can you recommend solicitors offering fixed charges for non-domestic conveyancing in Hartford for under £1,200?

My brother mentioned that when choosing a conveyancing lawyer they need approved by your mortgage company. I am novice purchaser but I have an AIP via HSBC and I already have a local conveyancing lawyer in Hartford in place. Does Santander require an approved lawyer to be used? If so, where can I find that list so I can pick a conveyancing solicitor in Hartford?

You need to instruct a solicitor that is on the Santander panel. Simply call your preferred Hartford conveyancing lawyer to check if they are on the Santander panel. If they are not approved you have numerous alternatives available to you here:

  • Complete the purchase with your existing Hartford conveyancer but Santander will undoubtedly retain a solicitor from their conveyancing panel. This will result in additional cost and potential frustration.
  • Choose a new solicitor to conduct the conveyancing, obviously checking they are on the Santander conveyancing panel.
  • Appeal to your lawyer to seek to join the lender panel.
