Recently asked questions about conveyancing in South Ockendon

I am expecting a offer of a home loan from Lloyds. I intend to employ the services of a Licensed Conveyancer in South Ockendon. Does the Lloyds Conveyancing panel allow for Licensed Conveyancers?

The Lloyds conveyancing panel is, like many other lenders, associated to the Council or Mortgage Lenders or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.

Do the conveyancing solicitors listed on your site execute conveyancing in South Ockendon by way of an attended exchange?

We do have a number of conveyancing specialists who can conduct one day exchanges. Do call us to obtain a conveyancing quote and details as to dates.

I am selling our property in South Ockendon and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using an online conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in South Ockendon. We have lived in South Ockendon for three years we know that this is a non issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm already. Are they able to advise? You must check with 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 health insurance to cover that same ailment)

3 months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in South Ockendon took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £215,000. 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.

Do I need to be suspicious that brokers that I am dealing with are suggesting a web based conveyancing firm rather than a High Street South Ockendon conveyancing company?

As is the case with lots of professional services, often recommendations from family and friends can be worth their weight in gold. But there are lots of players in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks might all suggest conveyancers to appoint. Sometimes the conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but sometimes there may be a commercial relationship behind the recommendation. You have the discretion to appoint your own conveyancer. However, bear in mind that the majority of mortgage providers specify a panel list of lawyers you are obliged to use for the lender related work in your conveyancing.

My cousin is purchasing a shared ownership flat in South Ockendon. He was given a quote by the lawyer recommended by the selling agents totaling £1275 . It was seven years ago since I sold and bought a property and the bill was £495. Have charges really increased to that extent?

What does the conveyancing estimate include? Is it just for the legal fees, or what you will be paying in total (for instance South Ockendon searches, land registry fees, etc)
