Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Huyton

As a novice what is the most important piece of guidance you can impart regarding purchase conveyancing in Huyton?

Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Huyton and elsewhere in Merseyside is often a confrontational process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists an abundance of room for confrontation between you and other parties involved in the transaction. For example, the seller, property agent and sometimes a lender. Selecting a law firm for your conveyancing in Huyton is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY party in the process whose responsibility is to act in your legal interests and to protect you.

On occasion a third party with a vested interest will attempt to sway you that it is in your interests to do things their way. For instance, the estate agent may claim to be assisting by claiming that your lawyer is dragging his heels. Or your mortgage broker may try to convince you to do something that is against your lawyers guidance. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.

We are buying a apartment in Huyton. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a solicitor? At some point we will need to send our life savings into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our money?

Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.

When it comes to lenders such as TSB, do Huyton solicitors incur an annual charge to be on the conveyancing panel?

We are not aware of any mortgage company fees to register on their list of approved firms, although some do levy an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.

We previously chose solicitors locally in Huyton on the Santander solicitor panel. They are now charging me an additional charge for dealing with the Santander mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Santander?

As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your property lawyer is entitled to charge a fee for this. The fee is not dictated by Santander but by your Huyton conveyancer. Numerous firms on the Santander panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.

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

Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Huyton. 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'm buying a new build house in Huyton with the aid of help to buy. The builders would not move on the price so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The sale representative told me not reveal to my conveyancer about this side-deal as it will affect my loan with Aldermore. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

My husband and I are buying a three bedroom ground floor flatin Huyton with a residential mortgage from a bank. We would like to retain our conveyancer in Huyton yet our mortgage company inform us now that he's not approved on their "panel". Apparently we need to choose one of the our mortgage company panel solicitors or keep our Huyton conveyancer and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The bank mortgage issued is subject to conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender's conveyancing panel. in the past, most mortgage companies had large numbers of law firms on their panels, including many conveyancing solicitors in Huyton : 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. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your bank.
