I am in need of a conveyancer. Do I opt for a nationwide conveyancer rather than a local Tickhill conveyancing solicitor?
In the main conveyancing lawyers in your area will enjoy excellent connections with your local authority, which can assist with the Tickhill conveyancing searches that your lawyer will require on your transaction. It can only be a plus if they have strong rapport with the Land Registry overseeing your area Tickhill, other conveyancers in the neighbourhood and Tickhill property agents.

My house in Tickhill is up for sale and I have a purchaser. Will the lawyer need to be required to be on the Nationwide conveyancing panel in order to deal with repayment of my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Nationwide 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 conditions fairly frequently in recent years.
I am assisting my aunt sell her property in Tickhill. Does the conveyancer arrange an EPC or should I organise this?
After the demise of Home Information Packs, energy performance certificates was maintained a required part of moving house. An energy assessment should be commissioned before the property is placed on the market. This is not something that lawyers normally organise. Where you are instructing a Tickhill conveyancing practitioner they might be willing to arrange energy performance certificates due to their relationships with reputable Tickhill providers
How can we tell if a Tickhill conveyancing solicitor on the Aldermore panel is any good?
When it comes to conveyancing in Tickhill seeking recommendations is a sensible start. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one which is cheap as chips. We would always suggest that you speak with the solicitor carrying out your conveyancing.
At last I have had an offer on an apartment in Tickhill accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have placed an offer on a property, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have chosen a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Tickhill. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Virgin Money started?
It is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Tickhill conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you should check that your conveyancer is on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. Regarding the subsequent stages this very much depends on the uniqueness of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a hot market many purchasers would apply for a home loan with Virgin Money and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their lawyer to proceed with searches.
Have completed on a a semi-detached house in Tickhill , how long will it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my ownership? My Tickhill conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to check that my purchase is registered.
As far as conveyancing in Tickhill registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry need to notify any third parties. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Registration is effected once the new owner is living at the premises thus post completion formalities is not usually an essential issue but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
Am I best advised to appoint a Tickhill conveyancing practitioner in close proximity to the house I am hoping to buy? We have a good friend who can conduct the conveyancing but her office is approximately 350miles away.
The benefit of a local Tickhill conveyancing practice is that you can pop in to execute documents, hand in your identification documents and apply pressure on them where appropriate. They will also have local knowledge which is a bonus. However nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If you know people who used your friend and in the main were content that must trump using an unfamiliar Tickhill conveyancing lawyer solely due to them being Tickhill based.
