Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hartlebury

Can you clarify what the consequences are if my lawyer’s firm is expelled from the Nationwide Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Hartlebury?

First, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

You should check these things with a surveyor prior to committing yourself to a purchase.

Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should clear the invoice as you normally would because all ground rent and service invoices will be apportionedon completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process
