I'm at the point of viewing houses in Holly Village and I am now considering a potential offer. Is it wise to have a conveyancer on ‘stand by’? I will be getting a home loan with Virgin Money.
You should start obtaining conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and pass their details on to the selling agent. Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Virgin Money, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.
My sealed bid on a detached house in Holly Village has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The vendors have put an offer on a property, but it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other properties in the pipeline. I have selected a high street conveyancing solicitor in Holly Village. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Nottingham going?
It is normal to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Holly Village conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you should ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Nottingham approved list. Regarding the next steps this very much depends on the specifics of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market many purchasers will apply for the mortgage with Nottingham and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their lawyer to press on with searches.

We are in the process of selling our flat in Holly Village. Conveyancing lawyers are doing their job but we have been asked to pay an extortionate amount from the freeholder. So far we have issued a cheque for £237 for a leasehold management pack and then a further £117.20 for responses to questions raised by the purchaser's property lawyer.
Your lawyer will not have any sway over the extent of the fee for this information but the typical fee for the information for Holly Village leasehold premises is £350. When it comes to Holly Village conveyancing deals it is customary for the vendor to pay for these charges. The freeholder or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer such questions although many will be content to do so - albeit often at high prices out of proportion to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no law that requires set fees for administrative tasks. There is no prescriptive time limit by which they are obliged to supply answers.
