Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Stratford

Recently contacted my conveyancing solicitor in Stratford who completed the legal work two years ago and wanted a conveyancing estimate based on the same type of house move (a leasehold premises and a freehold property) of almost identical values with a mortgage from The Royal Bank of Scotland. I am now being charged twice the amount. Stick with what I know or should I try and find an alternative property lawyer?

The estimate does seem a tad overpriced. If you you were to look around you might decrease the fees marginally by say a hundred pounds. That being said, assuming were content with the conveyancing the firm provided you mightcome to regret choosing an an untested lawyer. Remember to check the firm can also act for The Royal Bank of Scotland.

Finally the sale completed on my house in Stratford last May yet the purchaser is e-mailing me to moan that their lawyer is waiting to hear from mine. What are the post completion sale formalities following completion?

Post completion of your house sale your conveyancer should send the transfer documentation and all additional paperwork to the purchaser's lawyers. Depending on the transaction, your solicitor should also confirm that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been paid off to the purchasers solicitors. There is unlikely to be post completion requirements specific conveyancing in Stratford.

We are intent on selling our property in Stratford and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any high street Stratford lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed a web based conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Stratford. Having lived in Stratford for 5 years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to get clarification that the buyers are looking for.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm already. What do they say? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)

I'm buying a new build house in Stratford with the aid of help to buy. The builders refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent advised me not reveal to my solicitor about the side-deal as it may affect my mortgage with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

Taking into account that I will soon part with hundreds of thousands of pounds on a terraced house in Stratford I wish to have a conversation with the lawyer regarding thetransaction ahead of giving the go ahead to the firm. Can this be arranged?

Is the landlord entitled to charge an administration fee for a flat conveyance in Stratford?

Stratford conveyancing on leasehold apartments nine out of ten times results in fees being invoiced by landlords agents :

    Answering pre-exchange enquiries Where consent is required before sale in Stratford Supplying insurance information Deeds of covenant upon sale Registering of the assignment of the change of lessee after a sale
Your lawyer will have no control over the level of the charges for this information but the average costs for the information for Stratford leasehold property is £350. For Stratford conveyancing transactions it is customary for the seller to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer such questions most will be willing to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices where the fees bear little relation to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no law that requires fixed charges for administrative tasks. Neither is there any legal time frame by which they are required to provide answers.

Following months of dialogue we are unable to agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Stratford. Can we issue an application to the Residential Property Tribunal Service?
