Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Romsey

My husband and I are acquiring a brand new duplex in Romsey and my conveyancer is informing me that she is duty bound to the lender to disclose incentives from the developer. I am nearing the developer’s deadline to sign contracts and I have no desire to delay the conveyancing. Is my lawyer right?

You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your conveyancer. A precondition to being on a lender panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.

We wanted to use a conveyancing solicitor in Romsey for our house move. Our broker informed us that our mortgage lenders The Mortgage Works won't deal with them. Surely this is unduly restrictive?

Before the recession most mortgage companies had an appetite for risk which was higher than today. Almost all Romsey conveyancing firms would have been on many bank panels. The FSA in 2010 completed a thematic investigation into mortgage fraud which come to the conclusion: mortgage lenders should know the conveyancing solicitors dealt with. Consequently, lenders have regularly sought more information from law firms relating to their operations and the individuals who work for them and set certain criteria such a completing on a minimum number of conveyancing. Many Romsey conveyancing firms that have been excluded from lender panels have a 100% healthy track record, no complaints and no claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Romsey is one of the many areas where the solicitors we list are on the panel for The Mortgage Works.

Do commercial conveyancing searches reveal planned roadworks that could impact a commercial site in Romsey?

Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Romsey will execute a SiteSolutions Highways report as it reduces the time that conveyancers spend in sourcing accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Romsey.

I have recentlyfound out that Action Conveyancing have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Romsey for a purchase of a leasehold flat 9 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?

The quickest way to see if the property is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Romsey conveyancing specialists.

Given that I will soon spend over three hundred thousand on a two bedroom apartment in Romsey I wish to talk to a solicitor regarding thehouse move before appointing the firm. Can this be arranged?

We could not agree more - it is our preference to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you liaising with the solicitor who will be conducting your conveyancing in Romsey.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - each client is an important individual, not a case reference. The solicitors that we put you in touch with believe that the fees you are quoted for your conveyancing in Romsey should be the figure that you are charged.

We are in the process of purchasing a house in Romsey. Conveyancing is not yet done but we would like have the amount we are are buying for private from the likes of Nestoria. Is this achievable and how?

HMLR are legally required to disclose price paid information on a register of the title for domestic properties countrywide including properties in Romsey. The register of title is an open document, so the Land Registry would be breaking the law if they failed to grant access to the register.

In essence you can make a request of HM Land Registry to withhold the price paid data yet the answer will be in the negative.
