Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Southborough

Can I be sure that the Southborough conveyancing solicitor on the Principality panel is any good?

When it comes to conveyancing in Southborough getting recommendations is a good starting point. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one advertising the lowest fees. We would always advocate that you speak with the lawyer carrying out your conveyancing.

After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Southborough. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an advanced payment of £225. Shortly after, the solicitor called me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Aldermore panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

Having read lots of house buying guides, I note that they all recommend that you should get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Southborough solicitor - who is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. is that correct?

Virgin Money will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Virgin Money will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Southborough surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

My wife and I are selling our home in Southborough and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was 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 purchasers are using an internet conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Southborough. We have lived in Southborough for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You need to 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)

Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Southborough ahead of instructing solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. The surveyor advised that some banks will not give a loan on a flying freehold property.

It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different instructions for example to Halifax. If you e-mail us we can check via the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Southborough. Conveyancing will be smoother if you use a solicitor in Southborough especially if they are familiar with such properties in Southborough.
