My brother-in-law has suggested I instruct a conveyancing solicitor in Isle Of Wight. I need to find out whether they are accepted on the Platform Home Loans Ltd conveyancing panel. Could you assist?

The first thing you should do is call the lawyer and ask them whether they can act for the lender. Alternatively please call Platform Home Loans Ltd who may be able to confirm.

We are downsizing from our property in Isle Of Wight and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any local conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used a factory type conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Isle Of Wight. Having lived in Isle Of Wight for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to obtain confirmation that the buyers are looking for.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You must check with 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 life insurance to cover that same sickness)

How does conveyancing in Isle Of Wight differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Isle Of Wight come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Isle Of Wight tend to buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Isle Of Wight or who has acted in the same development.

I have been recommended by a couple of local selling agents in Isle Of Wight to get a quote from a conveyancer using your seach tool. What’s the financial advantage for Estate Agents to promote your services ahead of a competitor’s?

We don’t give any referral fee for sending work to this site. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission because home movers will think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

I am using a search engine for the term conveyancing in Isle Of Wight it brings up numerous solicitorsin the area. With so much choice what is the best way to find the right property lawyer for my move?

Costs for conveyancing in Isle Of Wight vary, so it's sensible to request at least four fee calculations from varying types of law firms. Be sure to obtain confirmation that the charges are guaranteed not to rise.
