Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Macclesfield

Recently contacted my conveyancing solicitor in Macclesfield who completed the legal work two years ago requesting a conveyancing quote based on the same type of house sale & purchase (a leasehold premises and a freehold premises) of almost identical values with a mortgage from Barclays . It looks as though am now being charged double. Should I hunt for an alternative firm of conveyancing solicitor?

The charges seem a little high. Where you are willing to invest time comparing prices you might trim some of the expense by as much as £125. On the other hand, providing that you were satisfied with the service the firm offered you mightcome to rue choosing an a cheaper lawyer. Don't forget to be sure that the conveyancer can act for Barclays . Do employ our search tool to find a Macclesfield conveyancing firm on the Barclays conveyancing panel, which can often include conveyancing solicitors in Macclesfield.

The Macclesfield conveyancing solicitors that I appointed last week on my purchase in Macclesfield have suddenly shut down. They were on acting for me because I had to have a solicitor on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel and my family Macclesfield lawyer was not. I sent them a cheque for £250 in advance. What are my options?

If you have an estate agent involved then let them know immediately so that they can let the sellers know 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 will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the Clydesdale 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 solicitors may be able to help.

I opted to have a survey completed on a property in Macclesfield prior to retaining solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the house. The surveyor advised that some mortgage companies tend not issue a mortgage on this type of property.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Lloyds has different requirements for example to Halifax. If you contact us we can look into this further via the appropriate bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Macclesfield. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Macclesfield to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.

Taking into account that I will soon part with over three hundred thousand on a property in Macclesfield I wish to talk to a solicitor concerning thehome move prior to appointing the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?

We could not agree more - we would be pleased to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you speaking to the solicitor who will be carrying out your property ownership legalities in Macclesfield.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - every client is unique person, not a matter reference. The practices that we put you in touch with believe that the figure you are quoted for residential conveyancing in Macclesfield should be the figure that you are charged.

We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the property agent has warned us that the owners will only issue a contract if we use the agent's recommended lawyers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family solicitor used to conveyancing in Macclesfield

It is highly unlikely the owners are behind this. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine purchaser is counter productive. Avoid the agents and go straight to the owners and make the point that (a)you are motivated buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to instruct your own,trusted Macclesfield conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide the estate agent a referral fee or achieve conveyancing thresholds set by head office.
