Having been suggested to visit your site we were going to go ahead with a conveyancing solicitor in Thames View found on your site but stumbled across alternative quotes on the internet seem less pricey – how come?
You can find many firms of solicitors marketing at first sight what seems to be cut price. Our advice is to think twice about how much you respect your own move to want to be penny wise pound foolish concerning the standard of the conveyancing. Many of them list a cheap quote as a headline but hide supplemental fees in the small print..
The Thames View conveyancing firm handling our Thames View conveyancing has identified a discrepancy between the surveyor’s assumptions in the home valuation report and what is revealed within the conveyancing documents. My lawyer has advised that he needs to ensure that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my solicitor’s stance correct?
Your property lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.

We are due to move house in March. Should my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you suggest a removal company in Thames View. Conveyancing lawyer was organised prior to coming across your site.
On the day of completion you can collect the keys from the estate agent but this should only occur when the previous owners solicitors inform the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be collected. Subsequently you can inform the removal company that they can start moving you in. We are not in a position to recommend a specific removal company but can help you find a residential property solicitor in Thames View or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Thames View.
I happen to be the single beneficiary of my late grandmother’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Thames View. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in January. I want to move. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship may be considered the same way as if I'd bought the property in January. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be affected by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the lender as this requirement primarily exists to pick up on subsales or the quick reselling of properties.
The formalities of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Thames View. Conveyancing was a necessary evil but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. How do I make a complaint?
All lenders have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Team at head office. We understand that complaints to a lender are sorted out effectively and efficiently. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service with full details of your complaint.
I own a semi-detached Georgian property in Thames View. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and National Westminster Bank. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the matching property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for 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 Thames View and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also check the situation with the conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.
A couple of weeks ago I was told by my lender that their approved solicitors work on no sale no fee basis for conveyancing in Thames View. I had a purchase abort and now the lawyers want search fees! They are stating that the fees are seperate!
By promising "no move no fee" Thames View conveyancing firms are foregoing their fees for any work done. We should point out that this is NOT an insurance scheme. you will still required to pay for any costs that your conveyancer has incurred on your behalf for example Thames View local authority checks
