I am aiming to move house in November. Will my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in Little Hulton. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen prior to coming across your website.

After that you should advise the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal company but can help you locate a conveyancing in Little Hulton or a solicitor that specialises in conveyancing in Little Hulton.
My conveyancer has informed me that absentee landlord insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Little Hulton?
The appropriate level of absentee landlord indemnity insurance depends on your lender. It would differ for example between Lloyds TSB Bank and Virgin Money. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.
It is not clear whether my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have telephoned my Little Hulton bank branch on a couple of occasions and was advised it wasn't a problem and they will lend. My Little Hulton conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- telephoned and was told they refuse to lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I simply don't know who is right.
Provided that the lawyer is on the lender panel, they must follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook specifications for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.
How does conveyancing in Little Hulton differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Little Hulton approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because house builders in Little Hulton tend to acquire the land, 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 conveyancers 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 Little Hulton or who has acted in the same development.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Little Hulton is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
