Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Holmfirth

My wife and I are planning to purchase a 3 bedroom flat in Holmfirth with a mortgage. We have a Holmfirth conveyancer, but the lender advise she’s not on their "panel". It seems we have little option but to instruct one of the bank panel firms or keep our Holmfirth solicitor as well as pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. We regard this is inequitable; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. Your mortgage offer is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the bank’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your Holmfirth conveyancing solicitor to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

How do I investigate if the solicitor conducting my conveyancing in Holmfirth is on the mortgage lender’sconveyancing panel? I am looking to avoid the situation of having one lawyer for me and one for TSB thus paying £175.00 in further legal costs.

Please do make the most of the find a lender approved solicitor tool on this page. Pick the lender and type ‘Holmfirth’ or your location and you will see numerous solicitors based in Holmfirth or by proximity to you.

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

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

I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Holmfirth I like with open areas and railway links nearby, however it only has 52 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Holmfirth suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.

In my capacity as executor for the estate of my uncle I am selling a residence in Monmouth but I am based in Holmfirth. My solicitor (based 200 miles from mehas requested that I sign a statutory declaration before the transaction finalising. Could you suggest a conveyancing lawyer in Holmfirth to attest and place their company stamp on the document?

Technically speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Normally or notary public or qualified solicitor will be fine regardless of whether they are located in Holmfirth

I am seeking to purchase a repossessed flat in Holmfirth and the bank selling would like to complete within a week. Can a conveyancer meet that timeframe? Am I best advised to select a high street Holmfirth firm or an online organisation that professes to complete quickly?

Attend your Holmfirth shopping parade. Pop in to two or three solicitor’s offices and request to see a conveyancing solicitor for an estimate. Explain your needs and seek assurances on speed. Choose the firm that seems most genuine. You need to choose a property lawyer on the list of solicitors acceptable to your lender.
