I am considering applying for a Nottingham mortgage for purchase of a new build (under development) in Shillington with 70% LTV. Is it compulsory to choose a solicitor on the conveyancing panel for Nottingham ?
In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the Nottingham conveyancing panel, but Nottingham 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 transaction.
How does conveyancing in Shillington differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Shillington approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because builders in Shillington tend to buy 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 property lawyers 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 used to new build conveyancing in Shillington or who has acted in the same development.
Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Shillington. Before I get started I would like to find out the remaining lease term.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Shillington - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
