Reasons to use our Notting Hill conveyancing solicitors

  • 1 This site is the first site offering you the facility to check that your conveyancing in Notting Hill will be conducted by a property lawyer on your bank member panel.
  • 2 The mark of a good conveyancing solicitor in Notting Hill is quality not quantity. The level of service offered by conveyancing "factories" (sometimes 'recommended' by large estate agency chains) sometimes falls short of the level of professionalism you will expect.
  • 3 Low cost packages from online conveyancers might seem attractive. However, these organisations are often based hundreds of miles away with little appreciation of the factors that affect property transactions in Notting Hill
  • 4 Regardless other sites advise it just might be important to attend your lawyer to sign documents. Too many 3rd parties are already with an interest in a house sale without having to add Royal Mail into the equation.
  • 5 Notting Hill conveyancing lawyers will be familiar with the local Land Registry Office, Local Authority and estate agents

I am purchasing a garden flat in Notting Hill. Conveyancing solicitors are said to be ‘a necessary evil’ but can I do it myself?

I am buying my first flat in Notting Hill with a loan from Lloyds TSB Bank. The sellers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The sale representative advised me not inform my conveyancer about the extras as it could impact my loan with Lloyds TSB Bank. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Notting Hill is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Notting Hill are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Notting Hill you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Notting Hill may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

I'm refinancing my existing home to a buy to let loan with Nationwide Building Society and intend to use the remaining equity as a down payment on another house. The area we are looking at is Notting Hill. Will your lawyers be able to act for both sets of banks and tie in the two deals?

Make use of our search tool on this site to be sure that the conveyancers are approved by both lenders. Assuming that they are the conveyancer will be able to simultaneously deal with the two deals but you should have a chat with you solicitor and specify your desired outcome and needs.

I need to appoint a conveyancing solicitor for leasehold conveyancing in Notting Hill. I've discover a web site which seems to have the ideal solution If it is possible to get all formalities done via phone that would be preferable. Do I need to be wary? What are the potential pitfalls?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
