Finally the sale completed on my house in Upminster Bridge last August yet the purchaser is texting me complaining that their solicitor needs to hear from mine. What should my lawyer have done now that I have sold?
Post completion of your sale your conveyancer is committed to deliver the transfer documentation and all of the paperwork to the buyer’s lawyers. If applicable, your solicitor must also send confirmation that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been redeemed to the purchasers solicitors. There are no post completion steps just for conveyancing in Upminster Bridge.
