Me and my wife are buying property in Killamarsh. My lawyer is not listed on the bank solicitor panel. Is it possible for me to retain my Killamarsh conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the bank panel?

  • Carry on with your chosen Killamarsh conveyancing practitioner but your bank will need to appoint a conveyancer on their approved panel. This will result in additional fees together with probable frustration.

My partner and I are refinancing our flat in Killamarsh with UBS. We have a son 19 who lives at home. Our solicitor requested us to identify anyone over the age of 17 other than ourselves who reside at the property. Our lawyer has now e-mailed a document for our son to sign, giving up any rights in the event that the property is repossessed. I have two questions (1) Is this document specific to the UBS conveyancing panel as he did not need to sign this form when we bought 4 years ago (2) In signing this form is our son in any way compromising his right to inherit the property?

First, rest assured that your UBS conveyancing panel solicitor is doing the right thing as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to UBS. This is solely used to protect UBS if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son’s right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of UBS had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.

Should my solicitor be making enquiries regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Killamarsh.

Flooding is a growing risk for lawyers dealing with homes in Killamarsh. Some people will buy a property in Killamarsh, fully expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical destruction, if a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, suitable insurance cover, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.

Solicitors are not best placed to impart advice on flood risk, however there are a number of searches that can be initiated by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which should give them a better appreciation of the risks in Killamarsh. The conventional set of property information forms sent to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) contains a standard question of the owner to determine whether the premises has suffered from flooding. If the property has been flooded in past and is not revealed by the seller, then a buyer may bring a claim for damages as a result of such an incorrect reply. A purchaser’s lawyers will also order an environmental report. This will indicate if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed inquiries will need to be initiated.

Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should discharge the invoice as usual as all rents and service charges will be apportioned on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date.
