A loan agreement from Santander for the refinancing of my 3 bedroom garden flat is coming imminently. Are you able to propose a cheap conveyancing practitioner in Thamesmead?

My grandson is buying a house that has just been built in Thamesmead with a mortgage from Bank of Ireland. His lawyer has said that there is a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?

The form is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when requested. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

When can the exchange of contracts take place for residential conveyancing in Thamesmead and am I required to attend the lawyers branch?

If you are round the corner to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Thamesmead you are welcome to attend to sign the paperwork. That being said, the firms we work with supply a nationwide conveyancing service and provide just as detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you digitally. The executing of the contract is not the critical part. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the solicitor to officially exchange when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Thamesmead)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

My house in Thamesmead is up for sale and I have accepted an offer. Will my solicitor have to be required to be on the TSB conveyancing panel in order to deal with redeeming my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the TSB conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their requirements fairly frequently at the moment.

If all goes to plan we aim to complete our sale of a £300,000 maisonette in Thamesmead next week. The freeholder has quoted £348 for Landlord’s certificate, building insurance schedule and previous years service charge statements. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge such fees for a flat conveyance in Thamesmead?

Thamesmead conveyancing on leasehold flats normally necessitates administration charges invoiced by landlords agents :

    Completing pre-contract enquiries Where consent is required before sale in Thamesmead Copies of the building insurance and schedule Deeds of covenant upon sale Registering of the assignment of the change of lessee after a sale
Your solicitor will have no control over the level of the charges for this information but the average costs for the information for Thamesmead leasehold premises is £350. For Thamesmead conveyancing transactions it is customary for the seller to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer such questions most will be willing to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices where the fees bear little relation to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no law that requires fixed charges for administrative tasks. Neither is there any legal time frame by which they are required to provide the information.

I have given up trying to purchase the freehold in Thamesmead. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on premiums?

Absolutely. We can put you in touch with a Thamesmead conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Lease Extension matter before the tribunal for a Thamesmead residence is Various @ Colombus Square in January 2012. the Tribunal calculated the premiums to be paid for new leases for each of the flats in Mariners Walk to be £3822 and the premium to be paid for the new lease of 2 Knights Court to be £4439. This case was in relation to 13 flats. The unexpired term was 76 years.
