Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Tadworth

My partner and I are approaching an exchange on a flat in Tadworth and my parents have sent the 10% deposit to my solicitor. I am now told that as the deposit has not arrived from me my property lawyer needs to make a notification to my mortgage company. Apparently, in also acting for the lender he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I advised the bank regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really necessary for this now to delay the deal?

Your conveyancing practitioner is obliged to clarify with lender to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only notify this to your mortgage company if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

Can you explain why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Tadworth is more expensive?

Tadworth leasehold properties involve far more paperwork than a freehold purchase, and therefore takes more time to examine and advise upon.Conveyancing will involve the lease having to be checked which is usually a lengthy document, queries raised to ensure that the covenants and conditions have been observed. If it is a flat there will be a management company in existence and the accounts of this will need to be checked and enquiries raised to ensure it is operating efficiently and that all monies due have been paid by the Seller to the company and if not ensuring that money is paid up to date or the appropriate undertakings obtained.

Have just purchased a probate house at auction in Tadworth. Conveyancing is needed. What happens now?

Now that you have exchanged you must appoint a conveyancing solicitor as a matter of priority as you are facing a fast approaching deadline in which to complete the purchase. An auction property will ordinarily have an associated legal pack. This will include most,if not all of the paperwork that your solicitor will need. In the case of leasehold property the conveyancing pack may include a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing documentation relating to a leasehold property. You should hand this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor as soon as possible. You also need to ensure that that you have the requisite funding in place to complete on the on the contractual date .

I am being told by my lawyer that missing deeds insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Tadworth conveyancing?

The right level of missing deeds indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Santander and Virgin Money. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.

Our offer on a property in Tadworth has been agreed to, the vendors do however have an associated purchase. The vendors have offered on a flat, but it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other apartments in the pipeline. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Tadworth. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with Aldermore started?

It is usual to have apprehensions 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, Tadworth conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you should check that your property lawyer is on the Aldermore approved list. Regarding the subsequent stages this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. In a rising market the majority of purchasers will apply for the mortgage with Aldermore and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their solicitor to move forward with searches.

Am I right to be wary by brokers that I am dealing with are recommending a national conveyancing firm rather than a local Tadworth conveyancing practice?

As is the case with many service providers, often suggestions from relatives can be most helpful. Nevertheless there are many parties with a vested interest in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, mortgage brokers and mortgage companies might all suggest conveyancers to instruct. On occasion these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but sometimes there may be a commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You have the discretion to select your preferred lawyer. Don't forget that most lenders specify a panel list of conveyancers you must use for the mortgage related work in your transaction.

Can you offer any advice when it comes to finding a Tadworth conveyancing practice to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?

When appointing a solicitor for your lease extension (regardless if they are a Tadworth conveyancing practice) it is imperative that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work. We suggest that you speak with two or three firms including non Tadworth conveyancing practices before you instructing a firm. If the firm is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions could be useful:

    If the firm is not ALEP accredited then why not? How familiar is the firm with lease extension legislation?

I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord to extend my lease without getting anywhere. Can I apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Tadworth conveyancing firm to assist?

Where there is a absentee freeholder or where there is disagreement about the premium for a lease extension, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 it is possible to make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal to decide the price.

An example of a Lease Extension matter before the tribunal for a Tadworth flat is 33 The Maisonettes Alberta Avenue in June 2014. the Tribunal decided that the premium payable for the grant of a new lease be the sum of £20,680 (Twenty Thousand six hundred and eighty pounds). This case related to 1 flat. The unexpired term as at the valuation date was 60.43 years.
