Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Headley

We were just about to exchange contracts for a property in Headley. We encountered a problem. The mortgage offer with Barclays Direct runs out on 24/9/2026 but the vendors are suggesting a completion date of 28/9/2026. Can one extend the mortgage expiry date?

The best person to deal with your concern is your conveyancer who should calculate if they better off negotiating with the mortgage company, owner’s representatives, property agents or conceivably all three based on what has happend in your transaction to date.

When can the exchange of contracts occur in domestic conveyancing in Headley and do I need to be at the conveyancers branch?

If you are local to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Headley you are invited in to sign the paperwork. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we recommend provide countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give just as diligent and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The signing of the contract is not the critical part. A signed contract is just a prerequisite for the firm to exchange contracts when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a long "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Headley)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

My flat in Headley is up for sale and I have a purchaser. Does the lawyer need to be required to be on the Barclays conveyancing panel in order to deal with redeeming my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Barclays conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their requirements fairly frequently currently.

I decided to have a survey completed on a house in Headley in advance of instructing lawyers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. The surveyor has said that some lenders may not give a loan on this type of home.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Santander has different instructions for example to Halifax. If you contact us we can check via the relevant bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Headley. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

Should I be concerned about brokers that I am dealing with are suggesting a nationwide conveyancing firm as opposed to a local Headley conveyancing firm?

As is the case with lots of professional services, often referrals from relatives can be worth their weight in gold. But there are numerous people with a vested interest in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, mortgage brokers and lenders might all suggest conveyancers to appoint. Sometimes the lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there exists a commercial relationship behind the recommendation. You are free to choose your own conveyancer. You need to be aware that many mortgage providers specify a panel list of lawyers you have to use for the lender related work in your transaction.

Should I appoint a Headley conveyancing solicitor in close proximity to the house I am hoping to buy? An old friend can deal with the conveyancing however his firm is located 300kilometers away.

The primary upside of using a high street Headley conveyancing firm is that you can pop in to execute paperwork, deliver your ID and apply pressure on them where appropriate. Having local Headley know how is a plus. That being said it's more important to get someone that will do a good and efficient job. If you know people who instructed your friend and on the whole were happy that must outweigh using an unfamiliar Headley conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being round the corner.
