As someone not used to conveyancing in Walton what’s the number one tip you can give me for the legal transfer of property in Walton

You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Walton or throughout England and Wales is an adversarial process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there is an abundance of opportunity for friction between you and others involved in the transaction. E.g., the seller, estate agent and sometimes your mortgage company. Choosing a lawyer for your conveyancing in Walton should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the transaction whose responsibility is to protect your legal interests and to protect you.

On occasion a potential adversary will try and sway you that it is in your interests to do things their way. For instance, the property agent may claim to be helping by suggesting your lawyer is slow. Or your financial adviser may advise you to do take action that is contrary to your lawyers advice. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.

Forgive me if this question is silly but I am wet behind the ears as a 1st time buyer of a two bedroom flat in Walton. Do I collect the keys to the house on the completion date from my conveyancer? If this is the case, I will use a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Walton?

There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will electronically transfer the purchase money to the seller's lawyers, and once they have received this, you should be able to collect the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. Usually this happens between 1 and 3pm.

A relative pointed out to me me that in purchasing a property in Walton there may be a number of restrictions as to what one can do in terms of external changes to the property. Is this right?

There are a number of properties in Walton which have some sort of restriction or requirement of consent to perform external changes. Part of the conveyancing in Walton should determine what restrictions are applicable and advising you as part of a ROT that should be sent to you.

We are buying a terrace house in Walton. We would like to carry out a loft conversion at the house.Will the conveyancing process involve enquiries to see if these alterations are prohibited?

Your solicitor will review the deeds as conveyancing in Walton will on occasion reveal restrictions in the title deeds which prohibit categories of changes or necessitated the consent of another owner. Certain works require local authority planning consent and approval under the building regulations. Some locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. It would be wise to check these issues with a surveyor before you commit yourself to a purchase.

How does conveyancing in Walton differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Walton approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because developers in Walton tend to purchase the land, 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 property lawyers 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 used to new build conveyancing in Walton or who has acted in the same development.

Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Walton before retaining lawyers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. My surveyor advised that some mortgage companies will not give a mortgage on this type of house.

It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different instructions for example to Nationwide. If you call us we can investigate further with the relevant lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Walton. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Walton to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.

I am using a search engine for the term cheap conveyancing in Walton it brings up many conveyancersin the area. How do I determine which is the right conveyancer for the sale of my house?

The ideal method of seeking the right conveyancer is via trusted testimonial, so seek the guidance of friends and relatives who have bought a property in Walton or the local estate agent or financial adviser. Charges for conveyancing in Walton vary, so it's advisable to secure at least three quotes from varying types of companies. Be sure to seek confirmation what costs in the quote includes.
