We were about to choose a conveyancing solicitor in Studley found using your comparison tool but stumbled across some other quotes on the internet seem less expensive – why is this?
One can find plenty of conveyancing outfits marketing what appear to be the cheapest conveyancing in Studley. You should think twice as to how much you respect your own move to want to take 'cheap' risks over the standard of the legal work. Some hide additional charges deep into the terms of business. The law firms that we put forward for conveyancing in Studley will notdo this.
At what point does exchange of contracts occur in residential conveyancing in Studley and am I required to attend the solicitors office?
If you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Studley you are invited in to sign contracts. However, the lender approved solicitors we work with offer a countrywide conveyancing service and provide just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The executing of the purchase agreement is not when everything is set in stone. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the firm to officially exchange at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a long "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Studley)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
My flat in Studley is up for sale and I have a buyer. Will the lawyer need to be on the Aldermore conveyancing panel in order to deal with repayment of my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Aldermore conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their specifications fairly frequently at the moment.
How does conveyancing in Studley differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Studley contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is finished. This is because builders in Studley tend to buy the site, 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 Studley or who has acted in the same development.
