My brother-in-law has suggested I instruct a conveyancing solicitor in Stoke Poges. I I am struggling to find out if they are accepted on the Godiva Mortgages Ltd conveyancing panel. Can you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?
The first thing you should do is phone the solicitor and ask them whether they are on the lender panel. Otherwise you can call Godiva Mortgages Ltd who may be able to help.
A colleague recommended that where I am purchasing in Stoke Poges I should ask my conveyancer to execute a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. Can you explain what the purpose of this search is?
A search of this type is usually quoted for as part of the standard Stoke Poges conveyancing searches. It is not a small report of more than thirty pages, listing and setting out important information about Stoke Poges around the property and the people living there. It incorporates an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the local Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime statistics, Local Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful data concerning Stoke Poges.
4 months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Stoke Poges completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
How does conveyancing in Stoke Poges differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Stoke Poges contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because house builders in Stoke Poges usually acquire the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Stoke Poges or who has acted in the same development.
