We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to instruct their panel conveyancer as I would much rather instruct a specialised conveyancing solicitor in Llanbradach?
Do check but the the likelihood is that appoint one of their panel solicitors should you take up the "fee-free" deal. Call the mortgage company to see if they make available a cash alternative. In the past a few mortgage companies offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case that money can go towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Llanbradach.
I can see plenty of here regarding conveyancing in Llanbradach but can you isolate your top tip for selecting the right conveyancer in Llanbradach
Do not opt for the cheapest Llanbradach 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 have a mortgage agreed in principle with Nottingham. Llanbradach conveyancing lawyers have been chosen. How long does it take for Nottingham to forward the offer to the property lawyer?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Nottingham done the survey? Have you informed Nottingham as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Nottingham conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
Lloyds have agreed my home loan in principle, my bid on a house in Llanbradach has been accepted, what are the next steps?
Your property agent will wish to know who your solicitors are (be sure the conveyancers are on the bank’s approved list). Call up Lloyds or the broker and finish off any outstanding paperwork. Lloyds will sellect a valuer who will get in contact with the estate agent or seller to schedule an appointment. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes about a fortnight to receive the mortgage offer. Lloyds will issue the offer to you and your conveyancers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Llanbradach.
I am downsizing from our house in Llanbradach and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers used a national conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Llanbradach. Having lived in Llanbradach for three years we know that this is a non issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You need to enquire of 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 illness)
