Top 5 reasons to use our service to help you select a local conveyancing solicitor in Levenshulme

  • 1 Conveyancer conveyancing solicitors have excellent personal connections with Levenshulme estate agents and work very closely with them and local surveyors so as to ensure transactions proceed expeditiously.
  • 2 Personal touch and pure property expertise are key benefits that you should look for when choosing conveyancing solicitors.

Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Levenshulme

Is there a list of Clydesdale panel conveyancers in Levenshulme on the Council of Mortgage Lender’s Website?

Unfortunately not yet. There is no such directory service on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association sites. Very few lenders make their panel listings viewable online. Where you are in need of a Levenshulme property lawyer on the Clydesdale please use our tool.

is it true that all Levenshulme conveyancing solicitors on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel are overseen by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Bank of Ireland approved list of solicitors they would need to be regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. The majority of banks do allow licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such practice would be overseen by the CLC.

I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Nottingham are being pedantic. The Levenshulme solicitor who is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Nottingham are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Nottingham have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Nottingham have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Nottingham may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

four months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Levenshulme took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

About to purchase a new build flat in Levenshulme. 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.

Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Levenshulme

    Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?

I opted to have a survey completed on a house in Levenshulme in advance of instructing conveyancers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. My surveyor has said that some mortgage companies will not grant a loan on such a home.

It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different instructions from Halifax. Should you wish to telephone us we can look into this further with the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Levenshulme. Conveyancing will be smoother if you use a solicitor in Levenshulme especially if they regularly deal with such properties in Levenshulme.

My step-father has suggested that I appoint his conveyancing solicitors in Levenshulme. Should I use them?

No doubt the ideal way to select a conveyancing practitioner is to have recommendations from friends or relatives who have actually experience in using the solicitor you're contemplating using.

Our conveyancing in Levenshulme is completing next Friday, but the couple I am buying from wants to move out on the Saturday PM. Do I agree to this?

You can't complete on a Saturday because the bank systems aren't operating.
