Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Stratford costs more?

Stratford leasehold conveyancing transactions usually involve additional investigations than freeholds including investigating the Lease, liaising with the Landlord such as serving applicable notices on the Landlord or managing agent, obtaining up-to-date service charge and management information, obtaining Landlord’s consents and reviewing management accounts and formation documents.

Are all Stratford Conveyancing Quality Solicitors on the Virgin Money conveyancing list of approved practices?

It is true that some banks and building societies now utilise CQS as the starting point for Panel membership such as HSBC and Santander. CQS accreditation however is no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. That being said,the CML have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for firms wishing to remain on their approved list of firms.

I'm in the throws of viewing apartments in Stratford and I am now considering a potential offer. Should I already have a conveyancer appointed at this point? I will be getting a home loan with Nationwide.

It would be sensible to start your search sooner rather than later. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and pass their contact information on to the EA. Given that you are seeking a mortgage with Nationwide, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.

I have finally had an offer on a maisonette in Stratford agreed to, but there is a chain. The owners have placed an offer on a flat, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other properties booked. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Stratford. What do I do now? When do I get the mortgage application with Skipton going?

It is usual to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is approx £1k, then survey, Stratford conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is check that your solicitor is on the Skipton conveyancing panel. As to the next steps this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, attraction to this property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market some buyers would apply for a home loan with Skipton and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their conveyancer to proceed with the conveyancing in Stratford.

How does conveyancing in Stratford differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Stratford contact us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because builders in Stratford tend to buy 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 property lawyers 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 used to new build conveyancing in Stratford or who has acted in the same development.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Stratford is the location of the property. Can you offer any assistance?

Flying freeholds in Stratford are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Stratford you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Stratford may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

Given that I will soon spend over three hundred thousand on a terraced house in Stratford I wish to have a conversation with the lawyer regarding thetransaction ahead of instructing the firm. Can this be arranged?

We could not agree more - we would be happy to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you speaking to the solicitor due to be carrying out your conveyancing in Stratford.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - every client is an important individual, not a file number. The law firms that we put you in touch with believe that the fees you are calculated and presented to you for residential conveyancing in Stratford should be the figure that you end up paying.
