Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Spondon

Do conveyancers request money on account for conveyancing in Spondon?

Where you are retaining lawyers for conveyancing in Spondon your solicitor will request that you to provide them with monies to cover the the cost of the conveyancing searches. Ordinarily this is needed to cover the fees of the conveyancing searches. When the deposit is payable against the purchase price then this will be required shortly prior to contracts are exchanged. The final balance that is due should be transferred shortly before completion.

We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our property in Spondon and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. A high street Spondon lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using an internet conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Spondon. Having lived in Spondon for many years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. 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 ailment)

I'm buying a new build house in Spondon with a loan from Aldermore. The sellers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent told me not to tell my conveyancer about this deal as it may affect my mortgage with Aldermore. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Spondon is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Spondon are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Spondon you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Spondon may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
