Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Ossett

Just been in touch with my conveyancing lawyer in Ossett who acted for me 18 months ago asking for a conveyancing quote based on the same type of house sale & purchase (a leasehold residence and a freehold property) of similar values with a loan from Britannia. I am now being quoted double. Am I right to be tempted to shop around for an alternative property lawyer?

The estimate does seem a little steep. Where you are prepared to invest time comparing prices you might get the conveyancing a bit cheaper by as much as £125. That being said, providing that you were happy with the assistance the firm offered you maylive to regret opting for an an untested conveyancer. If is important to be sure the firm can represent Britannia. Do employ our search tool to find a Ossett conveyancing firm on the Britannia approved list of lawyers, which can often include conveyancing solicitors in Ossett.

It is a dozen years since I acquired my house in Ossett. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been appointed on the sale but I am unable to locate the title documents. Is this a problem?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be with your mortgage company or they could still be with the solicitor who oversaw your purchase. Secondly in most cases the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Ossett involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is not registered it is more tricky but is not insurmountable.

I am close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our property in Ossett and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a web based conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Ossett. Having lived in Ossett for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get confirmation need.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)

How does conveyancing in Ossett differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Ossett come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is finished. This is because developers in Ossett tend to purchase the real estate, 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Ossett or who has acted in the same development.
