I am purchasing a house for cash in Preston Park. I have been living for the last twelve years in Preston Park. Conveyancing searches are exorbitant. Given that I have knowledge of the road and vicinity intimately should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?
Provided that you do not need a mortgage, then all but one or two of the Preston Park conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your conveyancer will ’encourage you, perhaps strongly, that you should have searches done, but he has a professional duty to take that path of encouragement . Do take into account; if you are intend to dispose of the house in the future, it will likely be be of interest to your prospective buyer what the searches determine. Sometimes properties with no practical issues can still throw up detrimental search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Preston Park will be able to give you some practical guidance concerning this.
I am considering applying for a Yorkshire BS mortgage for purchase of a new build (under development) in Preston Park with 60% loan to value. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for Yorkshire BS ?
There is nothing to stop you using your solicitor, but Yorkshire BS will insist on their interests being represented by a firm on their conveyancing panel. There is greater potential for delays and confusion with an additional lawyer added to the mix, and it will undoubtedly be more expensive too.
I understand that there are debates on Chancel Insurance on online forums. Am I compelled to take this when purchasing a house in Preston Park? or Apparently there is a law dating back centuries that could mean that owners of property residing in a parish church boundary may be liable to contribute towards maintenance towards the chancel in proximity to the church. Is this a legitimate concern for conveyancing in Preston Park?
Unless a previous purchase of the property completed after 12 October 2013 you can expect conveyancing practitioners delivering conveyancing in Preston Park to continue to recommend a chancel search and or chancel repair liability insurance.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Preston Park is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Preston Park are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Preston Park you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Preston Park may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. 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.
