We instructed a Kinver based firm for my conveyancing in Kinver last week. Upon checking the official terms of business I seewe are responsible for charges even if our purchase doesn't happen. Would I be best advised to instruct a web based lawyer advertising no move no charge conveyancing in Kinver?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will tend to be be higher to offset the conveyances that fail to complete. Do bear in mind that these offerings generally do not cover disbursements by way of example Kinver conveyancing search expenses.
We are a couple about to exchange contracts for a garden flat in Kinver. We have hit a snag. The mortgage offer with Coventry Building Society expires on 22/4/2025 but the sellers are suggesting a completion date of 24/4/2025. Can one prolong the mortgage expiry date?
The best person to deal with your concern is your lawyer who is in a position to calculate if they better off negotiating with the bank, owner’s lawyers, estate agents or indeed all three taking into account what has happend in your transaction to date.
I had a mortgage agreed in principle with Leeds Building Society. Kinver conveyancing practitioners are appointed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Leeds Building Society?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have Leeds Building Society done the survey? Have you informed Leeds Building Society as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
I was told three weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by UBS. Is it usual for UBS to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Kinver is approved on their conveyancing panel? UBS have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for UBS to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the UBS conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
Having read lots of mortgage guides, I note that it is considered advisable to get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Kinver solicitor - who is on the UBS conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. is that correct?
UBS will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually UBS will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your property lawyer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your Kinver postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with UBS, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Kinver.
Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Kinver. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

I bought a studio flat in Kinver, conveyancing having been completed in 2011. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Comparable properties in Kinver with a long lease are worth £216,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 yearly. The lease finishes on 21st October 2094
