Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Kingswinford

About to place an offer on a leasehold apartment in Kingswinford. The property agents assure me that it is standard for flats in Kingswinford to have less than 75 years remaining. I am expecting a mortgage with Chelsea Building Society. Is this going to be acceptable if the lease has 70 years remaining.

Most leasehold conveyancing experts should be able to deal with a lease extension. if you are obtaining a mortgage then your lender may insist that the lease be extended before competition. Chelsea Building Society have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook in relation to minimum unexpired lease terms. As of 28/3/2025 the requirements read as follows :

85 years from the date of completion of the mortgage. Please ensure that you explain the implications of a short term lease to the borrower.

I am aiming to move home in May. Will my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you recommend a removal company in Kingswinford. Conveyancing solicitor was found before I stumbled across this site.

On the day of completion you can collect the house keys from your estate agent however this should only take place after the previous owners solicitors advise the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be passed over. You should tell the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal company but can help you locate a conveyancing in Kingswinford or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Kingswinford.

I am purchasing a terrace house in Kingswinford. The intention is to carry out an extension to the side at the property.Will the conveyancing process involve investigations to ascertain if these alterations are permitted?

Your conveyancer should check the deeds as conveyancing in Kingswinford will sometimes reveal restrictions in the title deeds which prohibit categories of alterations or necessitated the consent of a 3rd party. Many extensions need local authority planning permissions and approval in compliance with building regulations. Some areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or impact extensions. It would be sensible to check these things with a surveyor before you commit yourself to a purchase.

Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with UBS. Kingswinford conveyancing solicitors are selected. How long does it take for UBS to forward the offer to the conveyancing practitioner?

There is no definitive answer here. Have UBS completed the valuation? Have you advised UBS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the UBS conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

Just acquired a terraced house in Kingswinford , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Kingswinford conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to check that my name is recorded.

As far as conveyancing in Kingswinford registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. At present approximately three quarters of submission are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Historically registration occurs once the purchaser is living at the property thus post completion formalities is not usually an essential issue but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

How does conveyancing in Kingswinford differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Kingswinford approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Kingswinford typically acquire the real estate, 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 Kingswinford or who has acted in the same development.

I am downsizing from my property. My past conveyancers closed down. I am in need of a recommendation of a conveyancing firm. I happen to live in Kingswinford if that makes things easier.

I today found out that one of the partners of the law firm undertaking the purchase conveyancing in Kingswinford is an aunty of the owners that we are purchasing from. Is this allowed?

As long as no conflict arises this is allowable. Where you are needing a mortgage then the mortgage company may have a say as many lenders have specific instructions concerning this. For example for Halifax as of 28/3/2025, the requirements read as follows :

1.15- May your firm act if the person dealing with the transaction or a member of his immediate family is the borrower?

Not if the person dealing is the borrower or a member of the borrower's immediate family. Your firm may act if a separate fee earner of no less standing or a partner in the firm acts for us.
