If you had a top tip for selecting a conveyancing solicitor in Stalham what would it be?

It would be unwise to be seduced by the lowest Stalham conveyancing fees. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

I have a mortgage with Aldermore for my property in Stalham. Conveyancing was finalised 12 months ago. In the event that I decide to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Aldermore?

Your original mortgage agreement with Aldermore will provide that you need their approval prior to letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Aldermore’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Aldermore will allow you to rent out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Aldermore directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Aldermore conveyancing panel firm.

After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Stalham. My financial adviser recommended their conveyancers. I paid an upfront payment of £175. Shortly after, the property lawyer called me to say that they were not on the HSBC 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 HSBC 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.

My partner and I are planning on selling our house in Stalham and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. Any local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a national conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Stalham. We have lived in Stalham for 5 years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get clarification that the buyers are looking for.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You must check with your lawyer before you do anything.

My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the selling agent told us that the seller will only issue a contract if we instruct the agent's preferred solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Stalham

We suspect that the seller is not behind this requirement. If they want ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious buyer is going to damage their objectives. Try to communicate with the vendors directly and make the point that (a)you are genuine purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to instruct your own,trusted Stalham conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn the negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing thresholds demanded by head office.
