Are all West Ealing Conveyancing Quality Solicitors on the Skipton conveyancing list of approved firms?

It is true that some lenders now make use of the accreditation scheme as the kick off point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander. CQS membership however gives no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. Nevertheless,the CML have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitors wishing to remain on their approved list of firms.

Can I be sure that the West Ealing conveyancing solicitor on the Nottingham panel is any good?

When it comes to conveyancing in West Ealing getting recommendations is a good starting point. 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 advertising the lowest fees. We would always recommend that you speak with the lawyer carrying out your conveyancing.

After what feels like an age I have had an offer on a flat in West Ealing agreed to, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on a property, however it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other flats booked. I have instructed a high street conveyancing solicitor in West Ealing. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with RBS started?

It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, West Ealing conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to check that your conveyancer is on the RBS conveyancing panel. As to the next steps this very much depends on the circumstances of your transaction, desire for this property and on the state of the market. During a rising market many purchasers will apply for the mortgage with RBS and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their lawyer to move forward with the conveyancing in West Ealing.

Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in West Ealing?

Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in West Ealing. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’

I'm buying a new build house in West Ealing benefiting from help to buy. The builders would not reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The house builders rep told me not disclose to my conveyancer about the deal as it will affect my mortgage with Virgin Money. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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 decided to have a survey done on a property in West Ealing ahead of instructing conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the property. The surveyor has said that some mortgage companies may not give a loan on this type of home.

It depends who your proposed lender is. HSBC has different instructions from Nationwide. If you contact us we can check via the relevant bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in West Ealing. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in West Ealing to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.

Me and my fiance are expecting to exchange on the purchase a house in West Ealing but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have agreed reparation from the seller of £3k in the form of a reduction in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process but my lender will not agree to this. Why were they approached?

The conveyancer listed on the lender approved list is required to advise the mortgage company of any amendments to the sale figure. In the event that you prohibit your conveyancing practitioner to notify the reduction to your lender then they would have no choice but to refrain from representing you and the lender.
