Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Putney Vale

In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Putney Vale? Why is this being asked of me?

You are right in these requests have nothing to do with conveyancing in Putney Vale. However these days you can not complete any conveyancing deal if you have not supplying evidence of your identity. This usually takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence and a council tax bill. Remember if you are providing your driving licence as evidence of ID it needs to be both the paper part and photo card part, one is not satisfactory in the absence of the other.

We intend to purchase a newbuild flat in Putney Vale with a residential mortgage from Alliance & Leicester .We use our Putney Vale conveyancing practitioner but Alliance & Leicester informed us her practice is not listed on their "panel". It seems we are left with no choice but to instruct a Alliance & Leicester panel lawyer or retain our local solicitor and pay for a Alliance & Leicester panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The loan issued to you contains terms and conditions, a common one being that solicitors will be on the Alliance & Leicester approved list. in the past, most banks had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Alliance & Leicester

How does conveyancing in Putney Vale differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Putney Vale come to us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because house builders in Putney Vale tend to buy the land, 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Putney Vale or who has acted in the same development.
