Do conveyancers request money up-front for my conveyancing in Iver?
Where you are retaining lawyers for conveyancing in Iver your solicitor will ask you place them with funds to cover the search fees. Ordinarily this is requested to cover the fees of the Local Authority Search. When the deposit is payable against the purchase price then this will be asked for shortly prior to contracts are exchanged. The final balance that is due will be payable shortly before completion.
I am due to move house in August. Should my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Iver. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen prior to coming across your site.
On the day of completion you can collect the keys from your property agent however this can only occur when the previous owners solicitors confirm to the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be given over. You should tell the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal company but can help you choose a conveyancing in Iver or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Iver.

We were going to get a OIP from Clydesdale this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Clydesdale recommend any Iver solicitors on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Iver solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Clydesdale through the process.
Me and my brother purchased a 4 bedroom Victorian house in Iver. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and TSB. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the matching address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??
You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Iver and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also question the position with the conveyancing practitioner who completed the work.
I decided to have a survey completed on a property in Iver prior to instructing lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the house. The surveyor advised that some mortgage companies may not grant a mortgage on a flying freehold house.
It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different requirements from Halifax. Should you wish to call us we can look into this further via the appropriate bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Iver. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
We're first time buyers - agreed a price, yet the agent told us that the owners will only issue a contract if we instruct their recommended conveyancers as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Iver
It is highly unlikely the sellers are behind this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated buyer is not the way to achieve this. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and make sure they understand (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to appoint your own,trusted Iver conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthose that will provide the estate agent a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing targets pre-set by HQ.
