When can the exchange of contracts occur in sale conveyancing in Sudbury and do I need to be at the conveyancers office?
If you are round the corner to our conveyancing solicitors in Sudbury you are welcome to come in to sign contracts. That being said, the firms we recommend offer a countrywide conveyancing service and give as equally detailed and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The executing of the property agreement is not the critical part. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the solicitor to officially exchange at the appropriate time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where a long "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Sudbury)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.
I have been advised by my solicitor that missing deeds insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Sudbury?
The right level of missing deeds indemnity insurance depends on your lender. It would differ for example between National Westminster Bank and Leeds Building Society. Conveyancing solicitors as opposed to borrowers take out such insurances.
I am selling my house. I had a double glazing fitted in March 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's lender, UBS are being pedantic. The Sudbury solicitor who is on the UBS conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but UBS are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do UBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that UBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why UBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
Bank of Ireland have agreed my mortgage in principle, my bid on a house in Sudbury has been agreed to, what happens next?
The property agent will need to be informed of your conveyancing practitioner's details (make sure the conveyancing practitioners are on the lender’s panel). Contact Bank of Ireland or your broker and finalise any relevant documentation. Bank of Ireland will appoint a valuer who will get in touch with the selling agent or owners to schedule a slot for the valuation to occur. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes about ten days to get a mortgage offer. Bank of Ireland will send the offer to you and your conveyancing practitioners. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Sudbury.
I have justbeen informed that Stirling Law have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Sudbury for a purchase of a freehold house 18 months ago. How can I establish that my home is registered correctly in the name of the former proprietor?
The quickest method to see if the premises is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Sudbury conveyancing specialists.

Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared.
I purchased a flat in Sudbury last 22/7/2024 and to date it is still not registered with HM Land Registry. It is part of a development site and my property lawyer told me that it can take twelve months to complete the registration formalities. I have contacted the Land Registry directly and they have informed me the original application was cancelled due to questions not being addressed in time. Should I be concerned?
