I am expecting a mortgage offer from Nat West. I intend to use a Licensed Conveyancer in Hurstpierpoint. Does the Nat West Conveyancing panel allow for conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Nat West conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders, represented by the CML or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
Is it possible for conveyancing in Hurstpierpoint to be completed in 10 days?
Where you are under time constraints for your conveyancing it is highly recommended that your solicitor is familiar with the location as they will benefit local relationships and insight. It is even conceivable that they could have transacted otherhouses in the same neighbourhood. You would be best advised to use a Hurstpierpoint conveyancing solicitor. Second, be sure that the lawyer is on the lender panel. It is understood that 18% of Hurstpierpoint conveyancing deals are delayed or derailed after discovering a buyer’s solicitor was not on their mortgage lender’s list of approved solicitors. This can often result in the home move being frustrated by almost 21 days. It is claimed that this issue impacts approximately one hundred thousand home sales annually. Many Hurstpierpoint conveyancing firms can not represent certain lenders so do check as early as possible.
Can you point me to a directory of Lloyds panel conveyancers in Hurstpierpoint on the Building Society Association’s Website?
No. There is no such tool on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association websites. Very few mortgage companies make their panel listings open the public on the web. If you are in need of a Hurstpierpoint solicitor on the Lloyds please make the most of our facility.
Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Coventry BS. Hurstpierpoint conveyancing lawyers are appointed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Coventry BS?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Coventry BS conducted the valuation? Have you informed Coventry BS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
I recently had an offer accepted on a house in Hurstpierpoint. My financial adviser recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £150. A few days later, the property lawyer contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Lloyds conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Lloyds panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
I am buying a new build flat in Hurstpierpoint. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore.

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the estate agent informed us that the vendor will only move forward if we appoint the agent's chosen solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a family solicitor used to conveyancing in Hurstpierpoint
We suspect that the seller is not behind this request. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a genuine purchaser is counter productive. Speak to the owners direct and make sure they understand (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to instruct your own,trusted Hurstpierpoint conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide their estate agent a referral fee or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by corporate headquarters.
The property lawyers undertaking our conveyancing in Hurstpierpoint has sent papers to review that reveal that the land is unregistered with epitome documents. How can it be that the property not yet recorded at HMLR?
It is rare for property in Hurstpierpoint to be unregistered. An 'epitome' is basically a dossier of photocopies of documents affecting an unregistered title. Plenty of Hurstpierpoint conveyancing lawyers should be familiar with this type of conveyancing but where uncertainty reigns the conventional recommendation presently seems to be for the current owners to register the title first and then sell - this no doubt cause a prolonged home move.
