Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Lowestoft

I am obtaining a mortgage with Lloyds. I intend to employ the services of a Licensed Conveyancer in Lowestoft. Does the Lloyds Conveyancing panel include Licensed Conveyancers?

The Lloyds conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders, represented by the CML or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.

I require conveyancing for a flat in a fairly new development (seven years built) in Lowestoft. Almost all the appartments are already occupied. Do I need carry out the neighbourhood searches for my conveyancing in Lowestoft?

You are putting yourself at risk in refusing to carrying out Lowestoft conveyancing searches. Without searches you have no clarity over flooding, environmental etc which may mean you walk away due to potential problems down the line. If you are buying mortgage free there is no legal requirement to have them, but we would seriously advise in the strongest possible terms that you have them. Where timings and driving down costs are top of your issues you should discuss with your conveyancer about the option of search insurance

My partner and I are intent on selling our home in Lowestoft and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. A high street Lowestoft conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a web based conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Lowestoft. Having lived in Lowestoft for six years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to get clarification that the buyers are looking for.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must 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)

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Lowestoft I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Lowestoft for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.

How difficult is it to change firm as I have to instruct a firm on the Accord Mortgages Ltd conveyancing panel. I was using a high street conveyancing solicitor in Lowestoft round the corner but she is not approved by Accord Mortgages Ltd
