I am helping my aunt sell her house in Holloway. Does the solicitor arrange the energy assessment or it is for the seller to coordinate?

After the demise of Home Information Packs, EPC’s was left as a mandatory part of selling a house. An energy assessment needs to be to hand in advance of the property being marketed. This is not something that law firms normally organise. If you are using a Holloway conveyancing solicitor they may help arrange energy assessments due to their relationships with long established local accredited person

Our sealed bid on a semi in Holloway has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on on an apartment, however it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other properties booked. I have selected a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Holloway. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with Lloyds going?

It is normal to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Holloway conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you should ensure that your conveyancer is on the Lloyds conveyancing panel. Regarding the next stages this very much depends on the circumstances of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. In a rising market the majority of buyers will apply for a home loan with Lloyds and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their property lawyer to proceed with searches.

Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Holloway?

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

Having used your search tool I can't find the lawyer I was hoping to instruct as being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel. My lawyer has said that they are on the lender approved panel. How can I be sure given that they are not listed on your directory?

Not all firms are yet listed on our lender panel search tool which is still relatively new. Law firms are listing on a daily basis and it is probably the case that your lawyer is on the bank conveyancing lawyer and you should probably take them at their word. Please do feel free to suggest that they completing their listing on our site as it would only cost them £1 a month to list themselves as being on the lender solicitor panel.
