Reasons to use our Tewkesbury conveyancing solicitors

  • 1 Solicitor conveyancing lawyers have valuable personal connections with Tewkesbury estate agents and work very closely with them and local surveyors so as to ensure transactions proceed expeditiously.
  • 2 On the balance of probabilities the other side’s lawyers are based in Tewkesbury - if so both parties are likely to have worked on conveyancing matters in the past
  • 3 Low cost packages from online conveyancers might seem attractive. However, these firms are often based hundreds of miles away with little appreciation of the factors that impact property transactions in Tewkesbury
  • 4 The hallmark of our conveyancing solicitors in Tewkesbury is quality not quantity. The level of service offered by conveyancing "factories" (sometimes 'recommended' by national chain estate agents) often falls short of the high standards of professionalism you would hope for.
  • 5 Tewkesbury lawyers work in conjunction with Tewkesbury estate agents, property finders, surveyors, banks and other professionals to make sure that the highest level of service is offered to clients every step of the way, ensuring the smoothest, most stress-free process possible

Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Tewkesbury

Is the fact that my conveyancer in Tewkesbury is not identified on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the standard of the firm’s conveyancing?

It would not be wise to jump to that conclusion. There are plenty of reasonable explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. If you are concerned you should simply call the Tewkesbury conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one near me in Tewkesbury I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Tewkesbury in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?

If you need a mortgage that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
