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.
Should I be concerned by estate agents that I am dealing with are suggesting a national conveyancing firm as opposed to a local Pelsall conveyancing practice?
As is the case with many professional services, often suggestions from relatives can be worth their weight in gold. But there are numerous parties with a keen interest in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks may suggest lawyers to retain. On occasion these lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but occasionally there might be a commercial relationship behind the recommendation. You are at liberty to choose your own conveyancer. However, bear in mind that some lenders specify a panel list of conveyancers you are obliged to use for the mortgage related work in your conveyancing.

I dont have enough spare cash to pay a 10% deposit on my house purchase in Pelsall , but I still want to go ahead. Do I have options?
One option is to try and accept a lower deposit. Many sellers will agree to a smaller deposit or even no deposit for a first time buyer or 100% mortgage. Be aware though that if you fail to complete you will still need to hand over a minimum of 10% of the purchase price regardless of how much deposit was agreed.
You can also agree a simultaneous exchange and completion as no deposit is required for this however neither party will be tied in until completion actually takes place and it can be risky if sellers change their mind at the last minute
