Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Shepperton

I am acquiring a property without a mortgage in Shepperton. I have been living for the last 20 years in Shepperton. Conveyancing searches are expensive. Given that I have knowledge of the area and road very well should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?

Provided that you do not need a home loan, then almost all of the Shepperton conveyancing searches are at your discretion. Your conveyancer will try and sway you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches done, but he has a professional duty to take that path of guidance. One thing to bear in mind; if you are likely to sell the house at a future date, it will be of importance to your prospective purchaser what the searches determine. There are plenty of instances where houses with day to day issues can still reveal negative search results. A good conveyancing solicitor in Shepperton will provide you some helpful guidance here.

Are the Shepperton conveyancing solicitors identified as being on the Co-operative conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by Co-operative?

Shepperton conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Co-operative conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Co-operative directly.

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Shepperton. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Shepperton

    Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Please supply a car parking plan. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.

I am looking for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one close by in Shepperton I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Shepperton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

Do I need to be suspicious by brokers that I am dealing with are encouraging me to use an online conveyancing firm rather than a local Shepperton conveyancing company?

As with lots of professional services, often recommendations from family and friends can be most helpful. But there are lots of parties with a keen interest in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks may put forward solicitors to use. On occasion the solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there is an underlying commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You have the discretion to select your preferred conveyancer. Don't forget that some mortgage providers have an approved list of solicitors you must use for the lender aspect of your house move.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent told us that the seller will only move forward if we instruct their recommended solicitors as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer used to conveyancing in Shepperton

We suspect that the seller is not behind this ultimatum. Should the vendor want ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Try to communicate with the vendors directly and make the point that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to appoint your own,trusted Shepperton conveyancing solicitors - as opposed tothose that will provide the estate agent a referral fee or meet his conveyancing targets demanded by senior management.
