Recently asked questions about conveyancing in South Yorkshire

At what point will exchange of contracts occur in purchase conveyancing in South Yorkshire and do I need to attend the solicitors branch?

Where you are in close proximity to our conveyancing solicitors in South Yorkshire you are invited in to sign documents. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we work with offer a national conveyancing service and give just as detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The executing of the contract is not the point of no return. A signed contract is necessary for the conveyancer to officially exchange at the suitable time, which will usually be very 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 South Yorkshire)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

Various online forums that I have frequented warn that are the primary cause of obstruction in South Yorkshire house deals. Is this right?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released findings of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the common causes of hindrances in the conveyancing process. Searches are unlikely to feature in any holding up conveyancing in South Yorkshire.

The deeds to my property can not be found. The lawyers who did the conveyancing in South Yorkshire 5 years ago have long since closed. What are my options?

Gone are the days when you need to have the physical original deeds to evidence that you own the land or premises, given that the Land Registry hold details of all registered land or property electronically.

How does the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my commercial premises in South Yorkshire and how can you help?

The 1954 Act affords a safeguard to commercial leaseholders, granting the dueness to apply to court for a renewal lease and continue in occupation at the end of the lease term. There are limited grounds where a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complicated. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing solicitors who use the act for protection and assist with commercial conveyancing in South Yorkshire

My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the property agent told us that the seller will only go ahead if we appoint the agent's chosen conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street solicitor used to conveyancing in South Yorkshire

We suspect that the seller is unaware of this requirement. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Try to communicate with the owners directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to use your preferred South Yorkshire conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a commission or achieve conveyancing targets set by HQ.
