You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in New Waltham or throughout Lincolnshire is often a confrontational process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is plenty of room for conflict between you and others involved in the transaction. For example, the vendor, estate agent and sometimes the lender. Choosing a solicitor for your conveyancing in New Waltham an important selection as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE person in the transaction whose role it is to protect your best interests and to protect you.

I have todaydiscovered that Arc property Solicitors have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in New Waltham for a purchase of a leasehold flat 12 months ago. How can I be sure that my home is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?

The easiest method to check if the property is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of New Waltham conveyancing specialists.

How does conveyancing in New Waltham differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in New Waltham approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because new home sellers in New Waltham usually acquire the site, 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 used to new build conveyancing in New Waltham or who has acted in the same development.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one close by in New Waltham I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in New Waltham for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

Should you need a home loan that many years will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.

The financial adviser has suggested using their solicitor for our conveyancing in New Waltham - Is it not simpler better to just instruct them?

This is not necessarily the case and you are free to use whichever solicitor of your choosing for your New Waltham conveyancing. A solicitor suggested by an estate agent may not always be the best conveyancing practitioner, they may recommend their preferred conveyancing firm who are based far away. In this instance you may not have contact with your conveyancer and due to the lack of continuity in the transaction, it may be difficult to obtain updates.
