Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hoyland

Do lawyers ask for an advanced payment for my conveyancing in Hoyland?

Where you are retaining lawyers for conveyancing in Hoyland your solicitor will request that you to provide them with funds to cover the the cost of the conveyancing searches. This will be the total of the cost of the Local Authority Search. If any down payment is as part of the purchase price then this will be asked for immediately prior to exchange of contracts. Any further balance that is needed should be sent to your lawyer a few days prior to the completion date.

Can you clarify what the consequences are if my solicitor is expelled from the Kent Reliance Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Hoyland?

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 for a fee.

We are buying a property in Hoyland. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a solicitor? On the day of competition we will need to deposit our life savings into their account. What is the protection we have from them run away with our deposit?

I just bought a flat at auction in Hoyland. Conveyancing is necessary. What is next?

Having exchanged you should choose a conveyancing practitioner soon as you are faced with a pending deadline in which to complete the property. An auction property will have an associated auction pack. This will likely include the copy title deeds, local authority and drainage searches. If you have purchased leasehold premises the auction pack may contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing documentation specific to a leasehold property. You need to hand this to the solicitor instructed by you as soon as possible. You also need to ensure that your finances are organised to complete on the on the contractual date .

At last I have had an offer on a maisonette in Hoyland accepted, the sellers do nevertheless have a connected purchase. The sellers have put an offer on a property, but it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other apartments in the pipeline. I have chosen a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Hoyland. What do I do now? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Barclays?

It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Hoyland conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your conveyancer is on the Barclays approved list. Concerning the next steps this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your transaction, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market some home buyers would apply for a home loan with Barclays and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their conveyancer to proceed with searches.

My partner and I are intent on selling our house in Hoyland and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Hoyland lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed a factory type conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Hoyland. We have lived in Hoyland for 5 years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to obtain clarification need.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm already. What do they say? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same ailment)

I decided to have a survey done on a house in Hoyland prior to retaining solicitors. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. The surveyor advised that some lenders will not issue a loan on such a house.
