Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Soho

I am purchasing a house mortgage free in Soho. I have resided for the last 15 years in Soho. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. As I have knowledge of the area and road intimately should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?

Provided that you do not need a mortgage, then the vast majority of the Soho conveyancing searches are at your discretion. Your solicitor will try and steer you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches completed, but she is duty bound to do this. Do take into account; if you are intend to dispose of the house in the future, it may be of interest to your prospective purchaser what the searches contain. On occasion houses with functional issues can still reveal negative search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Soho will provide you some sensible advice in this regard.

What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Soho? Why is this being asked of me?

You are right in the requirement set out by your solicitor has nothing to do with conveyancing in Soho. However these days you will not be able to complete any conveyancing process if you have not providing evidence of your identity. This usually takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence and a utility bill. Please note that if you are providing your driving licence as evidence of identification it needs to be both the paper part and photo card part, one is not sufficient without the other.

Evidence of your source of money is required in accordance with the Money Laundering Regulations. Please do not be offended when when this is requested of you as your conveyancing solicitor will need to have this information on record. Your Soho conveyancing solicitor will require evidence of proof of funds prior to accepting any monies from you into their client account and they may also ask additional questions concerning the origin of monies.

I am selling our home in Soho and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. Any high street Soho conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers used a national conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Soho. Having lived in Soho for many years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to seek clarification that the buyers are looking for.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)

I have justdiscovered that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Soho for a purchase of a freehold house 9 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is in my name in the name of the former proprietor?

The quickest way to check if the property is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Soho conveyancing specialists.

I am buying a new build flat in Soho. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Soho

    The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Please supply a car parking plan. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.

My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the selling agent informed us that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct their recommended lawyers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Soho

It is improbable the owners are driving this. Should the seller require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine buyer is going to damage their objectives. Avoid the agents and go straight to the owners and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you will continue to appoint your preferred Soho conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide their estate agent a kickback or hit his conveyancing figures set by senior management.
