Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Shotley Bridge. I would like to know the understand why all Shotley Bridge solicitors are not on all mortgage company panels?
Lenders point to the fact that solicitor-led fraud is considered to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud annually.The removal of law firms off of lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the FSA in 2011. Its conclusions included recommendations for lending institutions to review their conveyancing panels, which triggered a major policy change in the sector. This resulted in lenders removing less reputable firms from their books of approved conveyancers .
When does exchange of contracts occur in domestic conveyancing in Shotley Bridge and am I required to attend the lawyers branch?
If you are round the corner to our conveyancing solicitors in Shotley Bridge you are welcome to come in to sign contracts. However, the firms we work with offer countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give just as diligent and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The signing of the sale agreement is not when everything is set in stone. A signed contract simply enables the firm to address the formalities at the suitable time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Shotley Bridge)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.
four months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Shotley Bridge took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £180,000. 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 premises 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.
We're novice buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the property agent informed us that the vendor will only move forward if we instruct the agent's recommended solicitors as they need an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local conveyancer used to conveyancing in Shotley Bridge
We suspect that the owner is not behind this ultimatum. Should the vendor require ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they understand (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to instruct your preferred Shotley Bridge conveyancing lawyers - rather thanthose that will provide the negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing figures pre-set by corporate headquarters.
I own a leasehold flat in Shotley Bridge. Conveyancing and Nottingham Building Society mortgage went though with no issue. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the reversionary interest in the property. It included a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1996. The conveyancing solicitor in Shotley Bridge who acted for me is not around. Any advice?
The first thing you should do is make enquiries of the Land Registry to be sure that the individual claiming to own the freehold is indeed the new freeholder. It is not necessary to incur the fees of a Shotley Bridge conveyancing firm to do this as it can be done on-line for a few pound. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the legitimate landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.
I purchased a studio flat in Shotley Bridge, conveyancing having been completed 6 years ago. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Equivalent flats in Shotley Bridge with an extended lease are worth £185,000. The ground rent is £65 per annum. The lease terminates on 21st October 2085
With only 60 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to range between £20,000 and £23,000 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to provide a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed investigations. Do not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
