As someone not used to conveyancing in Stokenchurch what’s the number one tip you can impart for the home moving process in Stokenchurch
You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Stokenchurch and elsewhere in Buckinghamshire is an adversarial process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists an abundance of room for friction between you and others involved in the transaction. E.g., the vendor, property agent and on occasion your lender. Choosing a law firm for your conveyancing in Stokenchurch should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY party in the process whose interest is to protect your legal interests and to keep you safe.
There is a distinct increase of a "blame" culture- someone must be at fault for the process being so protracted. We recommend that you your first instinct should be to trust your conveyancer above the other players in the home moving process.
I'm the single beneficiary of my late grandmother’s will and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Stokenchurch. The Stokenchurch property was put into my name in July. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be treated the same way as if I'd bought the house in July. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be impacted by that. Most lenders would take a practical view as this requirement is chiefly there to pick up on subsales or the flipping of property.
Can I be sure that the Stokenchurch conveyancing solicitor on the Aldermore panel is any good?

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Stokenchurch. I have a mortgage agreed with Nottingham. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Nottingham, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.
