Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Wells Next The Sea

I have an AIP. The lender mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to appoint their panel conveyancer as I would much rather use a local conveyancing solicitor in Wells Next The Sea?

Do check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel lawyers where you take up the "fee-free" incentive. Call the mortgage company and ask if they make available a cash alternative. Some lenders have previously offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Wells Next The Sea.

I am planning to move property in June. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you recommend a removal company in Wells Next The Sea. Conveyancing solicitor was organised before I stumbled across this website.

On the day of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from the selling agent but this can only happen once the previous owners solicitors confirm to the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be handed over.

I am buying a detached bungalow in Wells Next The Sea. The intention is to an extension at the rear at the house.Will the conveyancing process include checks to ascertain if these alterations were previously refused?

Many extensions need local authority planning consent and approval in accordance building regulations. Many locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or affect extensions.

Leeds Building Society will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Leeds Building Society will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Wells Next The Sea surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £305k and found one near me in Wells Next The Sea I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease.

My wife and I purchased a leasehold flat in Wells Next The Sea. Conveyancing and HSBC Bank mortgage went though with no issue. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. It included a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1994.
