We decided to go with a high street solicitor for our conveyancing in Wellesbourne recently. Looking through the fine print it is apparent thatI am liable for fees even where the transaction does not complete. Should I go with them or select a web based lawyer advertising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Wellesbourne?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the fee levels will tend to be be more expensive to cover the transactions that abort. Also remember that these arrangements rarely cover outlay for instance Wellesbourne conveyancing search expenses.
I am hoping to complete my purchase in Wellesbourne next Thursday. My conveyancer now wants me to supply her with evidence of content and building insurance for the property as as she informs me that she is duty bound to validate that it is in order for the lender. What risks does the mortgage company expect the insurance to cover?
Any lawyer on acting for lenders would need to check that the following risks are covered fire; lightning; aircraft; explosion; earthquake; storm; flood; escape of water or oil; riot; malicious damage; theft or attempted theft; falling trees and branches and aerials; subsidence; heave;landslip;collision;accidental damage to underground services;professional fees, demolition and site clearance costs; and public liability to anyone else. There are some other issues such as the level of excess that are set out in a lender’s UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions. These obligations are not specific to conveyancing in Wellesbourne.
3 months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Wellesbourne completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I am looking at a two maisonettes in Wellesbourne both have approximately forty five years remaining on the leases. Should I regard a short lease as a deal breaker?
A lease is a right to use the premises for a period of time. As the lease gets shorter the marketability of the lease reduces and it becomes more expensive to extend the lease. For this reason it is advisable to extend the lease term. It is often difficult to sell a property with a short lease because mortgage companies may be reluctant to lend money on properties of this type. Lease enfranchisement can be a difficult process. We recommend you seek professional help from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this area.
