Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Pangbourne

My mortgage broker has asked me for my Pangbourne law firm’s panel member for the Lloyds conveyancing panel. Can you suggest how I discover this. I have e-mailed my local Pangbourne branch but they have not responded to me.

The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Pangbourne solicitor . Most Pangbourne conveyancing practices will keep a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each mortgage company.

I have an AIP. The lender mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to instruct their panel solicitor as I would prefer to use a specialised conveyancing solicitor in Pangbourne?

You should check but the the probability is that give you one of their panel lawyers if you accept the "fee-free" offer. Call the bank to ask if they allow a monetary alternative. In the past a few lenders offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Pangbourne.

We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our house in Pangbourne and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A high street Pangbourne lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a national conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Pangbourne. We have lived in Pangbourne for 4 years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of 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)

I need to appoint a conveyancing solicitor for leasehold conveyancing in Pangbourne. I happened to land on a web site which seems to have the ideal solution If there is a chance to get all the legals completed via email that would be ideal. Should I be wary? What should out be looking out for?

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?

Can you provide any advice for leasehold conveyancing in Pangbourne with the purpose of saving time on the sale process?

  • A significant proportion of the delay in leasehold conveyancing in Pangbourne can be reduced where you instruct lawyers as soon as your agents start advertising the property and request that they start to put together the leasehold documentation needed by the buyers’ conveyancers.
  • Many freeholders or Management Companies in Pangbourne levy fees for providing management packs for a leasehold home. You or your lawyers should enquire as to the fee that they propose to charge. The management pack sought on or before finding a buyer, thus accelerating the process. The average time it takes to obtain the necessary information is three weeks. It is the most common cause of delay in leasehold conveyancing in Pangbourne. You may think that you are aware of the number of years left on your lease but you should double-check via your lawyers. A buyer’s conveyancer will be unlikely to recommend their client to proceed with the purchase of a leasehold property the remaining number of years is below 75 years. It is therefore essential at an as soon as possible that you consider whether the lease requires a lease extension. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your property on the market for sale. If you have had conflict with your freeholder or managing agents it is essential that these are settled prior to the flat being marketed. The purchasers and their solicitors will be reluctant to purchase a property where there is an ongoing dispute. You may need to swallow your pride and discharge any arrears of service charge or settle the dispute prior to completion of the sale. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled prior to the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You will still have to reveal details of the dispute to the purchasers, but it is better to present the dispute as historic rather than unsettled.

Pangbourne Conveyancing for Leasehold Flats - A selection of Queries Prior to Purchasing

    This information is helpful as a) areas can cause problems in the block as the common areas may begin to deteriorate where maintenance are not paid for b) if the leasehold owners have an issue with the running of the building you will wish to know about it Are there any major works in the planning that will increase the maintenance fees? You should be aware if it is no more than eighty years it will affect the value of the property. Check with your bank that they are content with the length of the lease. Leases with less than 80 years remaining means that you will probably have to extend the lease sooner rather than later and it is worth discovering how much this will be. Remember, in most cases you would be required to have been the owner of the property for 24 months before you are legally able to carry out a lease extension.

How easy is it to change a solicitor as I need to find a Pangbourne based firm who is on the bank conveyancing panel. How simple is it to change conveyancer?

If you haven't yet instructed a conveyancer to start work and at this stage simply received an estimate as to costs, you're perfectly free to choose a different solicitor to carry out your work for you. The best way is to get recommendations from friends or family who have actually used the solicitor or conveyancer in Pangbourne that you're considering.
