The mortgage agreement from Santander for the remortgage of my single bedroom flat is expected by the end of next week. Are you able to put forward a cheap conveyancing practitioner in Lifton?
You are on the wrong site if you are seeking cut-price fees for conveyancing solicitors in Lifton. We can offer you affordable conveyancing but we do not aim to work with the cheapest lawyers. Do not be swayed by brokers seducing you with £100 conveyancing in Lifton. At best, in deciding on cheap conveyancing, you will end up with what you pay for and at worst you will end up being stung for additional fees and still not end up with the service expected.
Do lenders provide you with an approved list of Lifton conveyancing solicitors? How do you know who is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel?
Lifton conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Aldermore conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Aldermore directly.
I am buying a garden flat in Lifton. Conveyancing solicitors are said to be ‘a necessary evil’ but can I do it myself?
Leaving aside the complexities and merits of DIY conveyancing in Lifton you will have to appoint a solicitor on your mortgage company's conveyancing panel to look after their interests. Most people therefore find it easier to let the solicitor act for them and the lender. Furthermore there is minimal cost savings to be made in you doing conveyancing for yourself and another lawyer conducting the conveyancing for the lender. Please feel free to use the search tool to find a lawyer on your lender panel in Lifton.
My partner and I are selling our home in Lifton and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. A high street Lifton conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used a factory type conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Lifton. We have lived in Lifton for three years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation that the buyers are looking for.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Lifton I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Lifton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
What are my options where I am dissatisfied with the lawyer who undertook my conveyancing in Lifton?
Occasionally the level of service you receive is not as you expect, and unfortunately every so often matters do not go as planned. However there is recourse if you were dissatisfied with your conveyancing in Lifton. This varies from trying to resolve matters directly with them, through to reporting a lawyer to their governing body. If things still aren’t sorted out you may consider getting in touch with the Legal Ombudsman.
