Due to move into my new home in Nantwich next Friday. I have now been asked to send a copy of my building insurance schedule by my solicitor as as she informs me that she is duty bound to validate that it is in order for the lender. What risks does the bank expect the insurance to cover?
All property lawyers on acting for mortgage companies would need to check that the following risks are covered fire; lightning; aircraft; explosion; earthquake; storm; flood; escape of water or oil; riot; malicious damage; theft or attempted theft; falling trees and branches and aerials; subsidence; heave;landslip;collision;accidental damage to underground services;professional fees, demolition and site clearance costs; and public liability to anyone else. There are some other issues such as the level of excess that are set out in a lender’s UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions. These requirements are not unique to conveyancing in Nantwich.
Completed the sale of my flat in Nantwich last November yet the purchaser is SMS messaging every few hours to say his conveyancer is waiting to hear from mylawyer. What should my lawyer have done following completion?
Post completion of your disposal your solicitor should forward the transfer documentation and all supplemental paperwork to the buyer’s solicitors. Depending on the transaction, your conveyancer should also evidence that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been repaid to the purchasers conveyancers. There are no post completion tasks just for conveyancing in Nantwich.
My Conveyancer in Nantwich has never been on on the Aldermore Solicitor Panel. Is it possible for me to continue with my family solicitor notwithstanding that they are excluded from the Aldermore panel?
The limited options available to you here include:
- Carry on with your existing Nantwich lawyers but Aldermore will need to instruct a solicitor on their panel. This will inevitably rack up the overall conveyancing charges as well as cause frustration.
- Find a new lawyer to to deal with the purchase, remembering to check they are Aldermore approved.
- Try to convince your Aldermore based solicitor to attempt to join the Aldermore panel

I have just appointed agents to market my 2 bed apartment in Nantwich. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, however I have just received a quarterly service charge invoice – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
The sensible thing to do is discharge the invoice as you normally would because all ground rent and service charges should be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.

What is the the remaining lease term? It would be sensible to find out as much as possible about the managing agents as they will either make your life much simpler or much more difficult. Being a leasehold owner you will be at the mercy of the managing agents both financially and when it comes to daily issues such as the cleanliness of the common parts. Don't be afraid to ask prospective neighbours what they think of their management. In conclusion, be sure you know the dates that you are obliged pay the service charge to the managing agents and specifically what it includes. Is the freehold owned jointly by the tenants?
