Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Ponders End

I am approaching an exchange on a flat in Ponders End and my parents have sent the exchange deposit to my property lawyer. I am now advised that as the deposit has not come from me my conveyancer needs to make a notification to my mortgage company. I am advised that, in also acting for the mortgage company he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I advised the bank regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?

The property lawyer is obliged to clarify with lender to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only reveal this to your lender if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

The fact that your lawyer is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no conveyancing practitioner should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.

How does conveyancing in Ponders End differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Ponders End contact us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is ready to move into. This is because developers in Ponders End typically buy the site, 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 property lawyers 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 used to new build conveyancing in Ponders End or who has acted in the same development.
