Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Timsbury

We are purchasing a house and require a conveyancing solicitor in Timsbury who is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Can you recommend a local solicitor?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Nationwide . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Timsbury.

Do I need to have a meeting at the offices of the solicitor to sign the mortgage deed? If so, I will appoint a lawyer who conducts conveyancing in Timsbury so that I can pop in to their offices if required.

These days conveyancing panel lawyers for banks undertake all of the communications through Royal Mail, internet or over the phone. This enables them to carry out the conveyancing transaction regardless of where you live in the country. Nevertheless you can check if you have the option of visiting the offices of your conveyancing lawyer if needed.

Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Skipton. Timsbury conveyancing practitioners were appointed. How long does it take for Skipton to send the offer to the lawyer?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Skipton conducted the survey? Have you advised Skipton as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Skipton conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.

We have agreed to purchase a house in Timsbury. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Barclays have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

As your lender is Barclays your lawyer must comply with the formal requirements outlined in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Barclays. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook includes minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to Barclays where a lease does not meet these requirements. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to Timsbury.

Completion of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Timsbury. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction 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 Services Department at head office. In most cases complaints to a lender are resolved effectively and efficiently. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service, South Quay Plaza, 183 Marsh Wall, London E14 9SR who will take matters further.

How does conveyancing in Timsbury differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Timsbury contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because house builders in Timsbury typically buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Timsbury or who has acted in the same development.

Hoping to buy a property located in Timsbury and I am already nervous. I couldn't find anything specific about Timsbury. Conveyancing will be needed in due course but do you know about the Timsbury area? or perhaps some other tips you can share?

Rather than looking online forget looking online you should go and have a look at Timsbury. In the meantime here are some basic statistics that we found

We're new to the buying process - had an offer accepted, yet the agent informed us that the vendor will only issue a contract if we instruct their chosen lawyers as they need a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street solicitor who is familiar with conveyancing in Timsbury

We suspect that the owner is not behind this demand. Should the vendor require ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Contact the owners directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to use your preferred Timsbury conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will give the estate agent a referral fee or achieve conveyancing thresholds set by senior management.
