There is lots of information on this site about conveyancing in Shoreditch but what is your top tip for appointing the right conveyancer in Shoreditch

It would be unwise to be swayed by the cheapest Shoreditch conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. 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. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in advance.

I am purchasing a property in Shoreditch. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Virgin Money have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

As your lender is Virgin Money your lawyer must follow the conveyancing instructions contained in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Virgin Money. The CML Handbook sets out minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Virgin Money where a lease fails to comply with these conditions. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not isolated to Shoreditch.

I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Kent Reliance. I assume I don't need a Shoreditch solicitor on the Kent Reliance panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.

If you have finished paying off your Kent Reliance mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Kent Reliance mortgage from the register. Kent Reliance, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:

  1. but are not moving to another property
  2. where Kent Reliance has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. Kent Reliance has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your Kent Reliance mortgage has been paid off.

I appreciate that there are debates on Chancel Insurance on online forums. Do I need chancel insurance when buying a residence in Shoreditch? or I am told that there is a law dating back centuries that could mean that owners of property residing in a parish church boundary will be compelled to pay for repairs to the chancel within the church. Is this relevant for conveyancing in Shoreditch?

Unless a prior acquisition of the property completed after 12 October 2013 you may assume that solicitors carrying out conveyancing in Shoreditch to remain encouraging a chancel search and or chancel repair liability insurance.

3 months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Shoreditch took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I am using a search engine for the term on line conveyancing in Shoreditch it brings up many conveyancersin the area. How do I determine which is the suitable solicitor for the sale of my house?

The best method of choosing the right conveyancer is via personal testimonial, so ask friends and relatives who have acquired a property in Shoreditch or the local estate agent or financial adviser. Fees for conveyancing in Shoreditch vary, so it's a good idea to request at least three costs illustrations from varying types of solicitors.
