This question may be naive but I am unseasoned as FTB of a garden flat in Moor Row. Do I collect the keys to the house on the completion date from my conveyancer? If so, I will instruct a local conveyancing solicitor in Moor Row?
On the day of completion you do not need to attend the conveyancers office in Moor Row. Conveyancing lawyers for you will arrange to send the completion advance to the vendor’s solicitors, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you will be invited to collect the keys from the property Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this occurs early afternoon.
A friend advised me that in buying a property in Moor Row there may be various restrictions limiting what one can do in terms of external changes to the property. Is this right?
We are aware of anumerous of properties in Moor Row which have some sort of restriction or requirement of consent to execute external changes. Part of the conveyancing in Moor Row should determine what restrictions are applicable and advising you as part of a ROT that should be sent to you.
The formalities of my purchase has taken place for my property in Moor Row. Conveyancing was a necessary evil but I would like to complain about the lender. How do I make a complaint?
Most lenders have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Team at head office. Ordinarily complaints to a lender are resolved very quickly. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service with full details of your complaint.
I know that there are debates on Chancel Insurance on online forums. Do I require this when acquiring a house in Moor Row? or Apparently there is historic law that means some house owners living in a parish church boundary may be liable to pay for maintenance to the chancel within the church. Is this appropriate for conveyancing in Moor Row?
Unless a previous acquisition of the house completed after 12 October 2013 you may expect conveyancing practitioners delivering conveyancing in Moor Row to remain recommending a chancel search and or chancel repair liability policy.
four months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Moor Row concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I was pointed in your direction by a number of property agents in Moor Row to locate a conveyancer on your site. Is there a financial incentive for Estate Agents to market your services over and above alternative conveyancing organisations?
We don’t make any financial incentive for directing people in our direction. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission because members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

At last I have had an offer on an maisonette in Moor Row accepted, but there is a chain. The sellers have submitted an offer on somewhere, but it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other flats in the pipeline. I have instructed a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Moor Row. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Barclays going with Barclays?
It is understandable to have concerns where there is an associated chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (mortgage application is approx £1k, then valuation, Moor Row conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you should check that your property lawyer is on the Barclays approved list. Concerning the subsequent steps this very much depends on the circumstances of your transaction, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market the majority of home buyers will apply for a home loan with Barclays and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their property lawyer to proceed with the conveyancing in Moor Row.
