Can conveyancing in Rochford to be completed within 3 weeks?
First, If you are under pressure for your conveyancing it is advisable to make sure that your solicitor is familiar with the location as they will have local connections and know-how. It is possible that they could have conducted otherproperties in the same neighbourhood. Therefore consider using a Rochford conveyancing lawyer. Second, check that the lawyer is on the member panel. It is said that nearly one in five of Rochford conveyancing transactions are frustrated or derailed after finding out that a buyer’s conveyancer was not on their banks member panel. In many cases this discovery resulted in the legal transfer of property being held up by as much as three weeks. It is believed that this issue impacts in the region of one hundred thousand home sales every year. Many Rochford conveyancing firms can not represent certain banks so do check as early as possible.

We are planning to move house in February. Does my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you recommend a removal company in Rochford. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen before I stumbled across this website.
On the day of completion you can collect the house keys from the estate agent but this can only happen once the vendors lawyers confirm to the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be collected. You will need to advise the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a specific removal company but can assist you in choosing a conveyancing in Rochford or a lawyer with expertise in conveyancing in Rochford.
I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Rochford. I have a mortgage offer with Clydesdale. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Clydesdale, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel.
I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in March 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Barclays are being pedantic. The Rochford solicitor who is on the Barclays conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Barclays are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Barclays have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Barclays have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Barclays may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the agent has warned us that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct the agent's recommended lawyers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Rochford
It is improbable the sellers are driving this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated buyer is counter productive. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and make the point that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with finances arranged © you have nothing to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to instruct your preferred Rochford conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will earn the negotiator at the agency a kickback or meet his conveyancing targets set by HQ.
