Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Sandhurst

My financial adviser requires my Sandhurst lawyer’ panel reference for the Santander conveyancing panel. How do I obtain this. I have contacted my local Sandhurst branch but they have not got back to me yet.

The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Sandhurst conveyancer . Most Sandhurst conveyancing practices will keep a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each lender.

It is a dozen years since I acquired my property in Sandhurst. Conveyancing solicitors have now been appointed on the sale but I can't locate my title documents. Will this jeopardise the sale?

You need not be too concerned. First the deeds may be with the lender or they could still be with the lawyers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly in most cases the property will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring up to date copy of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Sandhurst involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is not registered it is more tricky but is not insurmountable.

How does conveyancing in Sandhurst differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Sandhurst approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because house builders in Sandhurst typically acquire the real estate, 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 Sandhurst or who has acted in the same development.

Being a leasehold owner you will be in the clutches of the managing agents from a financial perspective and when it comes to every day matters such as the tidiness of the communal areas.

Is there a difference between surveying and conveyancing in Sandhurst?

Conveyancing - in Sandhurst or anywhere in England and Wales - is the legal term given to transferring legal title of property from one person to another. It therefore includes the checking of the title. Whether buying or selling, you should be aware of anything affecting the property such as proposals by government departments, illegal buildings, or outstanding rates. The conveyancer should conduct the appropriate searches and inquiries on the property. Surveying relates to the structure of a property itself. A surveyor will look at a house, flat and any outbuildings you are purchasing and will help you discover the condition of the building and, if there are problems, give you a powerful reason for negotiating the purchase price down or asking the seller to remedy the problems before you complete your move.
