What is your number one tip for choosing a conveyancing solicitor in Hindhead
Do not opt for the lowest Hindhead conveyancing costs illustration. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in advance.
We had appointed solicitors based in Hindhead on the RBS solicitor panel. They have just invoiced me an additional charge for the legal aspects of the RBS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by RBS?
Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your lawyer can levy a fee for this. The charge is not set by RBS but by your Hindhead property lawyer. Some firms on the RBS panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but plenty of firms include it on their overall fee.
I have a mortgage with Principality for my property in Hindhead. Conveyancing has been completed 12 months ago. In the event that I decide to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Principality?
Your original mortgage agreement with Principality will provide that you need their approval in advance of letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Principality’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Principality directly. You need not do this via a Principality conveyancing panel firm.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Hindhead?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Hindhead. 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…’
How does conveyancing in Hindhead differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Hindhead come to us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because house builders in Hindhead usually buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Hindhead or who has acted in the same development.
