I am aiming to move property in January. Does my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you suggest a removal company in Townhill. Conveyancing firm was organised prior to coming across this page.
On the day of completion you will need to collect the house keys from the selling agent but this should only occur after the previous owners lawyers confirm to the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be released. After that you should tell the removal company that you are ready to move in. We do not suggest a specific removal company but can assist you in choosing a residential property solicitor in Townhill or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Townhill.
We previously instructed conveyancing lawyers based in Townhill on the Virgin Money solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a supplemental charge for handling the Virgin Money mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Virgin Money?
Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your conveyancing practitioner may levy a fee for this. This fee is not set by Virgin Money but by your Townhill conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of firms on the Virgin Money panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.
