Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Welling

Can the conveyancing practitioners to be found on your site conduct auction conveyancing in Welling?

We know of a number of niche solicitors we can put you in touch with those specialising in auction conveyancing. Welling is one of hundreds of areas of where our lawyers are based.

The Welling conveyancing lawyers that I appointed last week on my purchase in Welling have suddenly closed. I chose them because I needed a solicitor on the Skipton conveyancing panel and my previous Welling lawyer was not. I paid them funds in advance. What should be my next steps?

If you have an estate agent involved then let them know immediately so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the Skipton conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors should be in a position to assist.

What does a local search inform me about the house my wife and I purchasing in Welling?

Welling conveyancing often starts with the applying for local authority searches directly from your local Authority or via a personal search company for instance Xpress Legal The local search is essential in every Welling conveyancing purchase; that is if you don’t want any unpleasant surprises after you move into your new home. The search should provide data on, amongst other things, details on planning applications applicable to the property (whether granted or refused), building control history, any enforcement action, restrictions on permitted development, nearby road schemes, contaminated land and radon gas; in all a total of thirteen subject sections.

I am buying a new build house in Welling with a loan from Accord Mortgages Ltd. The developers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The estate agent suggested that I not reveal to my solicitor about this side-deal as it may adversely affect my mortgage with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Welling is where the house is located. Can you offer any opinion?

Flying freeholds in Welling are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Welling you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Welling may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.

My a decade ago. He has been married, divorced and in recent months got married again. He will be marketing the property in a couple of months. I think he will simply be asked to provide a copy of the marriage certificates to the lawyer however he is anxious it will hold up the home move. Should he appoint a lawyer to update the Land Registry information for the property?

The is no need to update the register on the basis that you have the proof needed to show how the change of name has come about.

The purchaser’s conveyancer will check the land registry entries and require evidence to establish the change of name e.g. marriage certificates.
