Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Meopham

I have just started taking steps with the intention of porting my current homeowner mortgage to a BTL Birmingham Midshires mortgage. The bank has said that I require a lawyer for this. I spoke to the same Meopham conveyancing firm who dealt with the legals when I previously acquired the house. The costs illustration e-mailed to me of £470 has surprised me as its a remortgage than a sale or purchase.

The estimate fees appear a tad high. Where you are prepared to spend time scrutinising quotes you could get the conveyancing a bit cheaper by as much as £100 plus VAT. On the other hand, providing that you were content with the conveyancing the firm offered you maylive to regret choosing an an untested conveyancer. Don't forget to be sure that the solicitor can act for Birmingham Midshires. Do employ our search tool to get a quote a Meopham conveyancing firm on the Birmingham Midshires member panel, which can often include conveyancing solicitors in Meopham.

Finally the sale completed on my house in Meopham last July but our buyer keeps calling me complaining that his solicitor needs to hear from myconveyancer. What are the post completion sale legalities now that I have sold?

Following your sale your solicitor is committed to forward the transfer deeds and all additional paperwork to the purchaser's lawyers. Depending on the transaction, your conveyancer must also send confirmation that the mortgage has been redeemed to the buyers solicitors. There is unlikely to be post completion formalities just for conveyancing in Meopham.

My wife and I are purchasing a property in Meopham. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a lawyer? At some point we have to put our life savings into their account. What is the protection we have from them run away with our money?

Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.

There is lots of here about conveyancing in Meopham but can you isolate your top tip for appointing the right conveyancer in Meopham

Do not opt for the cheapest Meopham conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. 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 know exactly what you’ll have to pay in advance.

The formalities of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Meopham. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. How do I make a complaint?

Almost all lenders have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Department at head office. Ordinarily complaints to a lender are sorted out very quickly. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service, South Quay Plaza, 183 Marsh Wall, London E14 9SR with full details of your complaint.

Various online forums that I have frequented warn that are the main reason for stalling in Meopham house deals. Is that correct?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published findings of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the top 10 causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Meopham.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Meopham I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Meopham in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you can 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 lawyer regarding this matter.

Taking into account that I am about to spend 450k on a terraced house in Meopham I wish to talk to a solicitor concerning thehome move ahead of giving the go ahead to the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?

This is something that we recommend - 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 doing your property ownership legalities in Meopham.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - every client is an important person, not a matter number. The practices that we put you in touch with believe that the figure you are calculated and presented to you for your conveyancing in Meopham should be the figure that you are charged.
