As someone unfamiliar with conveyancing in Theale what is the number one tip you can impart for the legal transfer of property in Theale
Not many law firms or advisers will tell you this but conveyancing in Theale or throughout England and Wales is often a confrontational process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is an abundance of room for confrontation between you and other parties involved in the ownership transfer. E.g., the seller, estate agent and on occasion your mortgage company. Choosing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Theale should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE party in the process whose role it is to act in your best interests and to protect you.
On occasion a third party with a vested interest may attempt to convince you that it is in your interests to do things their way. For example, the property agent may claim to be assisting by claiming that your conveyancer is slow. Or your mortgage broker may try to convince you to do take action that is against your solicitors guidance. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.
I am due to move property in September. Should my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you suggest a removal company in Theale. Conveyancing firm was chosen prior to coming across this site.
On the afternoon of completion you can collect the keys from your selling agent but this should only occur when the previous owners conveyancers confirm to the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be released. You will need to tell the removal men that they can start moving you in. We are not in a position to suggest a particular removal company but can assist you in locating a conveyancing in Theale or a legal practice with expertise in conveyancing in Theale.
I have today made my last payment due on my mortgage with Yorkshire BS. I assume I don't need a Theale property lawyer on the Yorkshire BS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Yorkshire BS mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Yorkshire BS mortgage from the register. Yorkshire BS, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Yorkshire BS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Yorkshire BS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
Completion of my purchase has taken place for my property in Theale. Conveyancing was a necessary evil but I would like to complain about the lender. How do I make a complaint?
Most banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Team at head office. Ordinarily 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 who will take matters further.
I have been told that property searches are the primary cause of delay in Theale conveyancing transactions. Is that correct?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released findings of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the top 10 causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Theale.
The deeds to our house can not be found. The solicitors who did the conveyancing in Theale 4 years ago have long since closed. What do I do?

If duplicates are not available, your lawyer can arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities protecting you against possible claims on the property.
