Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Liversedge

When will exchange of contracts take place for domestic conveyancing in Liversedge and am I required to attend the solicitors office?

Where you are in close proximity to our conveyancing solicitors in Liversedge you are welcome to attend to sign documents. However, the law practices we work with supply a nationwide conveyancing service and provide as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The executing of the property agreement is not when everything is set in stone. Signing on the dotted line simply enables the solicitor to exchange contracts at the suitable time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Liversedge)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

The Liversedge conveyancing lawyers that I recently instructed on my purchase in Liversedge have suddenly shut down. I chose them because I needed a firm on the Santander conveyancing panel and my previous Liversedge lawyer was not. I paid them money in advance. What are my options?

Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then let them know immediately so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the Santander conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new lawyers should be in a position to assist.

When it comes to lenders such as TSB, do Liversedge property lawyers have to pay a fee to be on the list of approved solicitors?

Nationwide have agreed my mortgage in principle, my bid on a apartment in Liversedge has been agreed to, what are the next steps?

The estate agent will wish to be advised as to your conveyancer's details (be sure the solicitors are on the lender’s approved list). Contact Nationwide or the broker and complete any appropriate forms. Nationwide will appoint a valuer who will get in touch with the selling agent or owners to arrange an appointment. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes about ten days for the mortgage offer to be issued. Nationwide will send the offer to you and your solicitors. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Liversedge.

After what seems like an age I have had an offer on an apartment in Liversedge agreed to, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on on an apartment, however it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other apartments booked. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Liversedge. What do I do now? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Santander?

It is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is approx £1k, then valuation, Liversedge conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you should check that your conveyancer is on the Santander conveyancing panel. As to the subsequent steps this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market many buyers will apply for the mortgage with Santander and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their solicitor to press on with searches.

The benefit of a high street Liversedge conveyancing practice is that you can pop in to execute paperwork, present your identification documents and pester them where appropriate. They will also have local knowledge which is a benefit. That being said nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job.
