Willinstructing a St Giles conveyancing solicitor make the ownership transfer easier?
Established third party relationships is an important consideration when appointing conveyancing lawyers. St Giles law firms often have long term relationships with mortgage brokers and agents, local authorities, surveyors and other conveyancing firms meaning the whole process is going to be much smoother for you. Hosting specialist experience in the local area also helps too.
My partner and I are downsizing from our property in St Giles and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a national conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in St Giles. We have lived in St Giles for 5 years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm already. Are they able to advise? You should 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 illness)
Just acquired a detached house in St Giles , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register my title? My St Giles conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be sure that my purchase is registered.
As far as conveyancing in St Giles is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry communicate with any other parties. At present roughly three quarters of submission are fully addressed within two weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Historically registration is effected once the buyer has moved in to the premises thus an expedited registration is not always an essential issue yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. St Giles is where the house is located. Is there any guidance you can impart?
Flying freeholds in St Giles are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside St Giles you must be sure that your lawyer goes 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 St Giles may decide 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 residence.
