I have just started taking steps with the aim of switching my domestic mortgage to a Buy to Let Platform Home Loans Ltd mortgage. The bank has said that I require a solicitor as part of the process. I had a chat the same Romsley conveyancing solicitor who acted on my behalf when I first bought the property. The fee calculation issued of £550 is an eye-watering amount to do this as its a remortgage than a sale or purchase.
The charges appear a bit high. If you are willing to invest time scrutinising prices you might get the conveyancing a bit cheaper by say £100 plus VAT. That being said, if you were pleased with the assistance the firm provided you couldcome to regret choosing an an unknown conveyancer. Remember to enquire the solicitor can also act for Platform Home Loans Ltd. You can make use of our search tool to select a Romsley conveyancing firm on the Platform Home Loans Ltd approved list of lawyers, which can often include conveyancing solicitors in Romsley.

In reading online forums for a high-quality solicitor in Romsley, many comment that I should look for a CQS kitemarked lawyer. Can you explain what CQS is?

We are planning to move house in February. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Romsley. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen before I stumbled across this page.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the house keys from your property agent however this can only happen when the previous owners conveyancers confirm to the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be passed over. Subsequently you can advise the removal men that you are ready to move in. We are not in a position to suggest a particular removal organisation but can help you locate a conveyancing in Romsley or a firm with expertise in conveyancing in Romsley.
I am buying a 4 bedroom semi-detached house in Romsley. The intention is to carry out an extension to the side at the property.Will legal due diligence on the property include enquiries to see if these works were previously refused?
Your solicitor will check the deeds as conveyancing in Romsley can occasionally reveal restrictions in the title documents which restrict certain works or need the consent of a 3rd party. Certain extensions need local authority planning permissions and approval under the building regulations. Some locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or affect extensions. It would be prudent to check these issues with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.
Our sealed bid on a property in Romsley has been accepted, but there is a chain. The sellers have put an offer on a flat, but it’s not yet tied up, and have viewings of other properties in the pipeline. I have chosen a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Romsley. What do I do now? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Yorkshire BS?
It is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Romsley conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is ensure that your lawyer is on the Yorkshire BS approved list. Regarding the next steps this very much depends on the specifics of your case, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a rising market many purchasers will apply for the mortgage with Yorkshire BS and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their lawyer to move forward with searches.
I am buying a new build house in Romsley benefiting from help to buy. The builders would not reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The estate agent suggested that I not reveal to my conveyancer about this extras as it may adversely affect my loan with Alliance & Leicester . Is this normal?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my commercial property in Romsley and how can your lawyers assist?
The particular law that you refer to gives a safeguard to business tenants, granting the legal entitlement to apply to court for a new tenancy and remain in occupation at the end of an expired lease. There are certain specified grounds where a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complicated. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing firms who use the act for protection and handle your commercial conveyancing in Romsley
