Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Twickenham

I can't travel far from Twickenham. Is there a reason why all Twickenham lawyers are not on all lender panels?

Lenders normally restrict either the nature or the number of conveyancing solicitors on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such criteria being that a organisation must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the structure of firm, some lenders made a decision to restrict the number of firms they permit to act for them. It is worth noting that building societies have no liability for the quality of conveyancing provided by any Twickenham conveyancing practitioner on their approved list. Increases in mortgage fraud was a key driver in the reduction of solicitor panels from 2008 notwithstanding that there are conflicting opinions concerning the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics published by HMLR indicates that thousands of conveyancing organisations only transact less than three conveyances a year. Those supporting conveyancing panel cuts ask why law firms should have any entitlement to be listed on a conveyancing panel when clearly property law is not their primary expertise?

Can I use your services to recommend a Conveyancing solicitor in Twickenham even if I’m not buying or disposing of a house, for instance if I wish to acquire an office in Twickenham with a mortgage from Aldermore?

The service is mainly there to help choose residential conveyancing solicitors in Twickenham but we have recorded towards the end of this page a few Twickenham commercial conveyancing firms. You should speak with the solicitors directly to see if they can also act for Aldermore

I just acquired a flat at auction in Twickenham. Conveyancing is required. What is next?

Now that you are for in every practical sense signed on the dotted line you should find a conveyancing practitioner quickly as you now have a pending a fixed date to complete the deal. An auction property should have a bespoke auction set of papers. This will include evidence of title and search results. If you have purchased leasehold premises the conveyancing papers may provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing paperwork relating to leasehold premises. You should pass this on to your appointed conveyancing solicitor ASAP. You also need to ensure that you have funds in order to complete on the on the contractual date .

When it comes to lenders such as UBS, do Twickenham solicitors incur a yearly amount to be on the conveyancing panel?

We are not aware of any mortgage company fees to be on their list of approved firms, although some do charge an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.

Having read lots of house buying guides, I note that it is considered advisable to get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local Twickenham solicitor - who is on the RBS conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. Is that normal?

RBS will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually RBS will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Twickenham surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

I am downsizing from our property in Twickenham and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. Any local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a factory type conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Twickenham. Having lived in Twickenham for three years we know that this is a non issue. Should we contact our local Authority to seek clarification that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)

Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Twickenham. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Twickenham

    Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Please supply a car parking plan. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Twickenham I like with a park and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 51 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Twickenham for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a mortgage that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
