Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Sandbach

My wife and I have recently bought a property in Sandbach. We have noticed several issues with the property which we believe were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? Can you clarify the type of searches that should have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Sandbach?

The query is not clear as what problems have arisen and if they are relate to conveyancing in Sandbach. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken during the legal transfer of property are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, the vendor completes a document called a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information provided is inaccurate, you could possibly take legal action against the owner for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Sandbach.

My husband and I wish to acquire a newbuild apartment in Sandbach with a homeloan from The Mortgage Works.We would like to retain our Sandbach conveyancing lawyer but The Mortgage Works advised that she’s not listed on their "panel". It seems we are left with little choice but to instruct a The Mortgage Works panel lawyer or keep our high street solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to act for them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?

Unfortunately,no. The loan issued to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that solicitors will be on the The Mortgage Works approved list. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for The Mortgage Works
