Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Pound Hill

I am progressing with the sale of my ground floor flat in Pound Hill and the EA has just called to warn that the buyers are appointing a new property lawyer. I am told that this is due to the fact that the bank will only deal with solicitors on their approved list. On what basis would a major lender only engage with certain law firms rather the firm that they want to appoint for their conveyancing in Pound Hill ?

Banks have always had an approved set of law firms that can represent them, but in the past few years big names such as Yorkshire Building Society, have reviewed and reduced their conveyancing panel– in some cases removing conveyancing firms who have represented them for decades.

Banks point to the increase in fraud by way of justification for the pruning – criteria have been tightened as a smaller panel is easier to keep an eye on. No lender will say how many solicitors have been dropped, claiming the information is commercially sensitive, but the Law Society claims that it is being contacted daily by practices that have been removed from panels. Some do not even realise they have been dropped until contacted by a borrower who has instructed them as might be the situation in your buyers' case. The buyers are unlikely to have any impact on this.

In the event thatI were to acquire a simple residential propertyin Pound Hill for cash and dispense with a survey and no local authority searches how much should I expect to to save on my conveyancing in Pound Hill?

The house builders rep told me not to tell my lawyer about the side-deal as it would affect my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
