Me and my wife are buying a maisonette in Ravensthorpe. My Conveyancer is not listed on the lender approved panel. Am I still permitted to retain my Ravensthorpe conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the mortgage company panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?
One will need to instruct a solicitor to complete the legal work required when you require a mortgage to purchase your home. They will carry out all the essential due diligence on the property, ensuring that you’re properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the necessary mortgage paperwork is dealt with. You may select a Ravensthorpe conveyancing practitioner of your choice. Nevertheless, if the lawyer selected is not on the bank approved list additional fees will arise as separate legal representation will be need by the lender. Lender panel applications may be submitted, so where your solicitor has not in the past sought membership they should take the opportunity to apply.
Our son-in-law is about to exchange on a house that has just been built in Ravensthorpe with a mortgage from HSBC. His lawyer has advised him of a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the HSBC conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when requested. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the HSBC conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

How does conveyancing in Ravensthorpe differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Ravensthorpe approach us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because builders in Ravensthorpe usually 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 conveyancers 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 Ravensthorpe or who has acted in the same development.
