Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Snaresbrook

My wife and I are looking to buy a home in Snaresbrook and are in fact using a Snaresbrook conveyancing practice. Within the last couple of days our solicitor has sent a preliminary report and documents to look through in anticipation of exchanging contracts shortly. Skipton Building Society have this morning contacted us to advise us that there is now an issue as our Snaresbrook conveyancer is not on their conveyancing panel. Please explain?

Where you are buying a property requiring a mortgage it is normal for the purchasers' lawyers to also act for the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a law firm has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the law firm to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the firm has to satisfy and indeed some lenders now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your property lawyer should contact your mortgage company and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on the lender’s conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Snaresbrook solicitors, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another lawyer into the mix.

Can you provide any top tips for leasehold conveyancing in Snaresbrook with the intention of speeding up the sale process?

  • Much of the delay in leasehold conveyancing in Snaresbrook can be reduced if you appoint lawyers the minute your agents start advertising the property and ask them to put together the leasehold documentation needed by the buyers’ conveyancers.
  • You believe that you know the number of years remaining on your lease but it would be wise to double-check via your conveyancers. A purchaser's conveyancer will be unlikely to recommend their client to to exchange contracts if the lease term is less than 75 years. It is therefore important at an early stage that you identify whether the lease term requires a lease extension. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your premises on the market for sale. The majority of freeholders or managing agents in Snaresbrook charge for supplying management packs for a leasehold premises. You or your lawyers should discover the actual amount of the charges. The management information can be applied for on or before finding a buyer, thus accelerating the process. The typical amount of time it takes to receive management information is three weeks. It is the most common reason for frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Snaresbrook. If there is a history of conflict with your freeholder or managing agents it is essential that these are settled prior to the flat being marketed. The buyers and their solicitors will be reluctant to purchase a flat where a dispute is ongoing. You may have to bite the bullet and pay any arrears of service charge or resolve the dispute prior to the buyers completing the purchase. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled ahead of the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You will still have to reveal details of the dispute to the buyers, but it is clearly preferable to present the dispute as historic as opposed to unsettled.

I have given up seeking a lease extension in Snaresbrook. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on premiums?

Absolutely. We are happy to put you in touch with a Snaresbrook conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement decision for a Snaresbrook property is 36 New Wanstead in August 2010. The Tribunal arrived at a valuation of the premium for the freehold of £22,359. This case related to 2 flats. The unexpired term as at the valuation date was 73.92 years.

We have AIP from Chelsea Building Society who suggested we could borrow up to £218k. When do I need to appoint a solicitor for conveyancing? Snaresbrook is where we plan to move to.

You can instruct a property lawyer now so that the conveyancing practitioner can open the ledger so they can conduct the ID checks etc. Once you wish them to commence work you will be asked for a payment on account normally approximately £175. That would normally be after you have the mortgage offer and valuation results, but if you want to speed the process you can start the ball rolling sooner albeit risking some money.
