Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Haydock

Is the fact that my conveyancer in Haydock is not identified on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of his work?

It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) lack of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. If you are concerned you should simply call the Haydock conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your lender.

Can you vouch for a Norwich and Peterborough Building Society allowed Haydock conveyancing solicitor who can have us moved in within a short deadline? Am I best advised to unstruct a high street Haydock solicitor or a national comparison site?

Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified as part of conveyancing in Haydock?

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

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Haydock. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Here are examples of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Haydock

    Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.

I decided to have a survey done on a house in Haydock ahead of retaining conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the house. Our surveyor has said that some mortgage companies tend refuse to give a mortgage on such a property.

It varies from the lender to lender. Santander has different instructions for example to Nationwide. If you e-mail us we can investigate 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 Haydock. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Haydock to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.

I need to retain a conveyancing solicitor for sale conveyancing in Haydock. I happened to chance upon a site which appears to be the ideal answer If it is possible to get all the legals done via phone that would be ideal. Do I need to be wary? What should out be looking out for?
