Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Stalham

We went with a local lawyer for my conveyancing in Stalham last week. Reviewing the Terms and Conditions I seeI am on the hook for charges even if the movefalls through. Should I ditch them and select a web based conveyancing company promoting no move no charge conveyancing in Stalham?

Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to cover the conveyances that fail to complete. Also remember that such arrangements tend not to cover expenses by way of example Stalham conveyancing search fees.

We are buying a brand new flat in Stalham and my conveyancer is informing me that she has to the mortgage company to reveal incentives from the seller. I am under pressure to sign contracts and I don't want to delay deal. is my lawyer playing by the book?

You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your conveyancing practitioner. A precondition to being on a bank panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.

There is nothing to stop you using your solicitor, but Virgin Money will insist on their interests being represented by a firm on their conveyancing panel. There is much more potential for delays and confusion with an additional lawyer added to the mix, and it will undoubtedly be more expensive too.

Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Stalham. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
