We are aiming to move home in April. Does my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Stamford Hill. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across this site.
On the day of completion you will need to collect the keys from your property agent but this should only occur after the sellers conveyancers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be given over. Subsequently you can inform the removal company that they can start moving you in. We do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can assist you in choosing a conveyancing in Stamford Hill or a solicitor that specialises in conveyancing in Stamford Hill.
Can I be sure that the Stamford Hill conveyancing solicitor on the Skipton panel is any good?
When it comes to conveyancing in Stamford Hill getting recommendations is a sensible start. 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 which is cheap as chips. We would always advocate that you speak with the lawyer conducting your transaction.
Virgin Money have agreed my home loan in principle, my offer on a apartment in Stamford Hill has been accepted, now what?
The property agent will need to know who your solicitors are (ensure that the lawyers are on the bank’s approved list). Contact Virgin Money or your financial adviser and complete any outstanding documentation. Virgin Money will instruct a valuer who will get in contact with the selling agent or seller to arrange a slot for the valuation to take place. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes about a week to get a mortgage offer. Virgin Money will issue the offer to you and your conveyancers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Stamford Hill.
Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Stamford Hill ahead of retaining conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the property. Our surveyor has said that some mortgage companies tend not issue a loan on a flying freehold home.
It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different instructions from Halifax. If you e-mail us we can check via the appropriate bank.

Could you suggest a conveyancing practitioner in Stamford Hill who can attest this legal document for me?
Technically speaking you are unlikely to be required to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Normally or notary public or qualified solicitor will be fine regardless of whether they are based in Stamford Hill
I work for a long established estate agent office in Stamford Hill where we have witnessed a few flat sales derailed due to leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received inconsistent advice from local Stamford Hill conveyancing firms. Can you clarify whether the vendor of a flat can commence the lease extension formalities for the buyer?
As long as the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the proposed purchaser can avoid having to wait 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or simultaneously with completion of the disposal of the property.
An alternative approach is to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.
I am the registered owner of a basement flat in Stamford Hill. In the absence of agreement between myself and the freeholder, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal make a decision on the premium payable for a lease extension?
if there is a absentee landlord or where there is disagreement about what the lease extension should cost, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 it is possible to make an application to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to assess the premium.
An example of a Lease Extension decision for a Stamford Hill residence is Flat 25, Stamford Hill Mansions Stamford Hill in April 2010. The Tribunal therefore determined that the premium to be paid by the lessee to the freeholder for the extension of the lease should be £28,984.00 This case was in relation to 1 flat. The unexpired residue of the current lease was 59 years.
Some months ago I was informed by my bank that their approved lawyers work on no completion no fee basis for conveyancing in Stamford Hill. I had a purchase abort nevertheless the lawyers have requested search fees! They say the fees are seperate!
By promising "no completion no fee" Stamford Hill conveyancing firms are foregoing their charges for any work done. We should make it clear that this is not to be regarded as an insurance scheme. Disbursements aren’t covered – where the lawyer have to pay money out to third parties, for instance Stamford Hill local search fees
