Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Mansfield

I had intended to instruct a conveyancing solicitor in Mansfield for our house purchase. Our broker informed us that our mortgage company Aldermore won't deal with them. Surely this is unduly restrictive?

Lenders in the main restrict either the category or the number of conveyancing solicitors on their member panel. Typical examples of such criteria being that a firm must have two or more partners. As well as restricting the type of firm, some have reduced the number of solicitor practices they use to act for them. Be aware that Aldermore have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any member of Aldermore Conveyancer Panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the reduction of conveyancing panels since 2008 even though there are mixed opinions concerning the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Figures from the Land Registry reveal that hundreds of law firms, including some in or near Mansfield only perform a couple conveyances a year.

How does conveyancing in Mansfield differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Mansfield come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because house builders in Mansfield typically acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Mansfield or who has acted in the same development.

Given that I am about to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds on a two bedroom apartment in Mansfield I wish to have a conversation with the conveyancer concerning theconveyancing prior to instructing the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?

We could not agree more - it is our preference to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you first talking to the conveyancer who will be carrying out your conveyancing in Mansfield.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - each client is an important person, not a matter reference. The law firms that we put you in touch with believe that the figure you are quoted for residential conveyancing in Mansfield should be the amount on the final invoice that you are charged.

If you are instructing a conveyancer for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Mansfield conveyancing practice) it is most important that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work. We advise that you speak with several firms including non Mansfield conveyancing practices prior to instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then that’s a bonus. The following questions might be useful:

    If the firm is not ALEP accredited then what is the reason?

Mansfield Leasehold Conveyancing - Examples of Queries Prior to Purchasing

    Does the lease have onerous restrictions? Many Mansfield leasehold flats will have a service charge for maintenance of the building levied on behalf of the landlord. If you acquire the apartment you will have to meet this charge, usually in instalments accross the year. This can vary from several hundred pounds to thousands of pounds for large purpose-built blocks. In all likelihood there will be a ground rent to be met annual, this is usually not a exorbitant sum, say around £25-£75 but you should to check as occasionally it could be surprisingly expensive. In the main the outlay for major works are not included within service charges, albeit that a few managing agents in Mansfield require tenants to contribute towards a reserve fund and this is used to offset against larger works.

Is there a reason that Mansfield conveyancing fees differ for leasehold and freehold properties?

Leasehold conveyancing in Mansfield can involve additional due diligence including fully examining the lease, liaising with the freeholder, obtaining up to date rent receipts, landlord’s consents, management company’s accounts etc.
