Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Rusholm

My partner and I are hoping to acquire a house in Rusholm and are in fact using a Rusholm conveyancing practice. Within the past 48 hours our lawyer has forwarded the sale agreement to be signed with a detailed report with a view to exchanging next week. Yorkshire Building Society have this morning contacted us to advise us that they have now hit a problem as our Rusholm conveyancer is not on their approved list of lawyers. What do we do from here?

If you are buying a property needing a mortgage it is standard for the purchasers' lawyers to also act for the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a law firm has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the law firm to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the firm has to satisfy and indeed some lenders now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your solicitor should contact your bank and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own solicitors to act. You don't have to instruct a firm on the lender’s conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Rusholm solicitors, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it may delay matters as you have another set of people involved.

What is your number one tip for finding a conveyancing solicitor in Rusholm

It would be unwise to be seduced by the lowest Rusholm conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need.

Your solicitors will transfer the completion advance to the seller's solicitors, and once they have received this, you should be able to receive the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home.

I am the sole beneficiary of my late father’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Rusholm. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in November. I plan to dispose of the house. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship will be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in November. Will no one buy the property for half a year?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook obliges conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you may be caught by that. Some banks would take a pragmatic view as this requirement is primarily there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of properties.
