Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Overton

We are buying a newly built duplex in Overton and my conveyancer is advising me that she has to the mortgage company to disclose incentives from the developer. I am nearing the developer’s deadline to exchange and I don't want to delay deal. is my lawyer playing by the book?

You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your conveyancer. A precondition to being on a mortgage company panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.

Please explain the implications if my solicitor is suspended from the UBS Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Overton?

The first thing to point out is that, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

Should our conveyancer be asking questions regarding flooding during the conveyancing in Overton.

Flooding is a growing risk for conveyancers specialising in conveyancing in Overton. Some people will acquire a house in Overton, fully aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, satisfactory building insurance, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.

Conveyancers are not qualified to give advice on flood risk, however there are a various searches that can be carried out by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which can give them a better understanding of the risks in Overton. The conventional set of completed inquiry forms supplied to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) contains a usual question of the vendor to determine if the property has ever been flooded. In the event that the premises has been flooded in past which is not revealed by the owner, then a purchaser could issue a legal claim for losses as a result of such an misleading answer. The buyer’s solicitors will also carry out an enviro search. This should reveal if there is any known flood risk. If so, additional investigations will need to be initiated.
