Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Liskeard

I am hoping to receive a mortgage offer from Halifax. I hope to employ the services of a Licensed Conveyancer in Liskeard. Does the Halifax Conveyancing panel allow for conveyancers regulated by the CLC?

The Halifax conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders, associated to the CML or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.

Can you help? My Liskeard conveyancer is assuring me that he is legally obliged toconduct Liskeard conveyancing searches becausethe firm are on the Lloydssolicitor panel. Is this really necessary?

Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. As you are obtaining a home loan with a mortgage company your conveyancing practitioner has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your solicitor would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook requirements . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Liskeard conveyancing searches.

If you had a top tip for selecting a conveyancing solicitor in Liskeard what would it be?

Do not opt for the cheapest Liskeard conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

We were going to get a DIP from RBS this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do RBS recommend any Liskeard solicitors on the RBS conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?

You will need to appoint Liskeard solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the RBS conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and RBS through the process.

I've digested plenty of house buying guides, I note that it is considered advisable to get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Liskeard solicitor - who is on the Barclays conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. is that correct?

Barclays will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Barclays 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 solicitor 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 Liskeard postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Barclays, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in Liskeard.

It has been 2 months since my purchase conveyancing in Liskeard completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. 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 property 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.

I'm buying my first flat in Liskeard benefiting from help to buy. The sellers would not reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The house builders rep suggested that I not inform my conveyancer about this side-deal as it would affect my loan with the bank. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I need to review estimates for conveyancing in Liskeard from numerous property lawyer and choose one. Am I right to tell them to sit tight until I a suitable apartment to buy.

You should only ask your property lawyer to open a file and order searches once the sales memo has been issued by the selling agent especially as Liskeard conveyancing searches are not inexpensive.
