Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Lower Sunbury

Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my solicitor in Lower Sunbury is not listed on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the standard of her work?

That is most likely an incorrect assumption to make. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. If you are concerned you should contact the Lower Sunbury conveyancing practice and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.

I have been told that property searches are the primary cause of hinderance in Lower Sunbury house deals. Is this right?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released findings of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure within the most frequent causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Local searches are not likely to feature in any slowing down conveyancing in Lower Sunbury.

Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Lower Sunbury?

Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Lower Sunbury. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’

I am purchasing my first flat in Lower Sunbury with a mortgage from Virgin Money. The developers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The sale representative advised me not to tell my conveyancer about this extras as it will put at risk my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer 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.

Am I right to be concerned about 3rd parties that I am dealing with are encouraging me to use a web based conveyancing firm rather than a High Street Lower Sunbury conveyancing company?

As with lots of professional services, often referrals from family and friends can be most helpful. But there are lots of players in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks may suggest lawyers to instruct. On occasion these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but sometimes there behind the scenes financial incentive behind the recommendation. You are at liberty to choose your own conveyancer. Don't forget that many banks operate an approved list of solicitors you are obliged to use for the mortgage related work in your home move.
