I am expecting a offer of a home loan from Santander. I hope to enlist the help of a Licensed Conveyancer in Upper Norwood. Does the Santander Solicitor panel allow for Licensed Conveyancers?

How can we know in advance if a Upper Norwood conveyancing solicitor on the Nottingham panel is any good?

When it comes to conveyancing in Upper Norwood obtaining 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 advise that you speak with the lawyer conducting your transaction.

We have a mortgage agreed in principle with Barclays. Upper Norwood conveyancing lawyers were appointed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Barclays?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Barclays done the valuation? Have you informed Barclays as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Barclays conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

I was told four weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Nottingham. Is it usual for Nottingham to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Upper Norwood is approved on their conveyancing panel? Nottingham have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their Professional Indemnity Insurance Schedule.

Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Nottingham to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

We are buying a house and the solicitor has mentioned Chancel Repair to which the house could be liable given it’s proximity to the area of such a church. She has mentioned insurance. Is this strictly warranted for conveyancing in Upper Norwood

Unless a prior purchase of the house completed after 12 October 2013 you may expect conveyancing practitioners delivering conveyancing in Upper Norwood to continue to recommend a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Upper Norwood I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Upper Norwood in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage that many years will be problematic. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.

I have been recommended by a number of selling agents in Upper Norwood to select a conveyancer using your seach tool. Is there a financial inducement for Estate Agents to recommend your lawyers over and above another?

We don’t give any financial incentive for directing people in our direction. We thought it would be too underhand a fee because home movers will think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

Are there any apps to help search for a Upper Norwood conveyancing solicitor on the mortgage company conveyancing panel? I have a car and am prepared to travel up to 15kilometers to meet the lawyer.
