Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Wheatley

I am acquiring a house mortgage free in Wheatley. I have resided for the previous 20 years in Wheatley. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. Given that I know the road and vicinity intimately must I have all the conveyancing searches?

In the absence of a mortgage, then almost all of the Wheatley conveyancing searches are at your discretion. Your solicitor will try and sway you, perhaps strongly, that you should have searches carried out, but he is duty bound to do this. Do bear in mind; if you are likely to dispose of the house one day, it could be of importance to your prospective buyer what the searches disclose. There are plenty of instances where premises with apparent issues can still throw up unpredicted search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Wheatley will be able to give you some sensible guidance concerning this.

We are purchasing a flat and require a conveyancing solicitor in Wheatley who is on the Bank of Ireland solicitor panel. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a firm?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Bank of Ireland . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Wheatley.

My relative advised me that where I am buying in Wheatley I should ask my conveyancer to perform a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?

A search of this type is occasionally quoted for as part of the standard Wheatley conveyancing searches. It is a large document of about 40 pages, listing and setting out significant information about Wheatley around the property and the people living there. It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the Wheatley Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime details, Wheatley Education with maps and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information about Wheatley.

Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly picked up during conveyancing in Wheatley?

Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Wheatley. 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…’

How does conveyancing in Wheatley differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Wheatley approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because developers in Wheatley usually acquire 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Wheatley or who has acted in the same development.

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the property agent informed us that the owners will only move forward if we instruct their chosen conveyancers as they want a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Wheatley

It is unlikely the sellers are behind this. If they want ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Contact the sellers directly and explain that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to appoint your own,trusted Wheatley conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn their estate agent a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing targets set by corporate headquarters.
