We selected a high street firm for our conveyancing in Royton today. After carefully reading the fine print I seeI am on the hook for charges even if the movefalls through. Should I go with them or select an on-line firm advertising no move no charge conveyancing in Royton?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will generally be higher to offset the conveyances that do not proceed. You should be mindful that such arrangements generally do not cover disbursements by way of example Royton conveyancing search fees.
I am considering applying for a RBS mortgage for purchase of a newly converted (under development) in Royton with 70% LTV. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for RBS ?
In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the RBS conveyancing panel, but RBS would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same conveyancing matter.
How does conveyancing in Royton differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Royton contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because developers in Royton usually acquire 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 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Royton or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in Royton I like with amenity areas and station nearby, however it only has 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Royton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
