Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hillsborough

Willretaining a Hillsborough conveyancing solicitor make the ownership transfer smoother?

Existing third party relationships is an important consideration when appointing conveyancing solicitors.

Hosting a sound experience in the local area also helps too.

Do the conveyancing solicitors identified through your search tool handle auction conveyancing in Hillsborough?

There are a number of niche practitioners we can put you in touch with those conducting auction conveyancing. Hillsborough is one of the many locations where our lawyers are based.

In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Hillsborough? What am I being asked for?

You are right in the requirement set out by your solicitor has nothing to do with conveyancing in Hillsborough. Nowadays you will not be able to proceed with any conveyancing process without first submitting evidence of your identity. This usually takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence as well as a bank statement. Please note that if you are supplying your driving licence as proof of ID it must be both the paper section and photo card part, one is not satisfactory without the other.

Verification of your origin of funds is required under Money Laundering Regulations. Please do not be offended when you are asked to produce this as your lawyer will need to retain this information on record. Your Hillsborough conveyancing solicitor will require evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any monies from you into their client account and they will also ask additional questions regarding the source of funds.

Can you clarify what the consequences are if my solicitor is expelled from the TSB Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Hillsborough?

The first thing to point out is that, this is very unlikely to happen. 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 at a cost.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Hillsborough is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Hillsborough are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Hillsborough you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Hillsborough may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

In what way does the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my business offices in Hillsborough and how can you help?

The particular law that you refer to gives protection to commercial leaseholders, giving them the dueness to make a request to court for a new lease and remain in occupation when the lease comes to an end. There are limited grounds where a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are involved. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing. Hillsborough is one of our numerous areas of the UK in which our lawyers are based
