If you had a top tip for selecting a conveyancing solicitor in Sunbury what would it be?

It would be unwise to be tempted by the cheapest Sunbury conveyancing fees. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

When it comes to mortgage companies such as HSBC, do Sunbury property lawyers have to pay a yearly amount to be on the list of approved solicitors?

We are unaware of any lender fees to register on their panel, although some do charge an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.

I was told two weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Bank of Ireland. Is it usual for Bank of Ireland to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Sunbury is approved on their conveyancing panel? Bank of Ireland have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.

We are buying a property and the lawyer has referenced Chancel Repair for which the house may be liable given it’s proximity to the area of such a church. He has recommended insurance. Is this really necessary for conveyancing in Sunbury

Unless a prior purchase of the house took place post 12 October 2013 you could take it that lawyers carrying out conveyancing in Sunbury to continue to recommend a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.

I own a terraced Georgian house in Sunbury. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Nottingham Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are a couple of entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the matching property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You should assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Sunbury and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also enquire as to the situation with the conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.

I am buying a new build apartment in Sunbury. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.

Here are examples of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Sunbury

    Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Sunbury I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Sunbury for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?

If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
