At long last a loan agreement from HSBC for the remortgage of my single bedroom maisonette is expected any day now. Are you able to recommend a low cost conveyancing solicitor in Wheatley?
You have arrived at the wrong site to search for the lowest fares for conveyancing solicitors in Wheatley. Our intention is to offer value for money conveyancing but we do not aim to advertise as being the cheapest. Avoid the trap of appointing brokers offering the bait of £99 conveyancing in Wheatley. At best, in deciding on cheap conveyancing, you will receive what you pay for and at worst it will result in you invoiced for additional fees and still not end up with the service expected.
The sellers of the property we are hoping to buy are using a conveyancing practitioner in Wheatley who has recommended a preliminary contract with a non-refundable deposit two thousand pounds. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
This form of agreement is not the norm in Wheatley, conveyancers are often inclined to veer clients away from them as they detract from focusing on the main conveyancing focus and if you end up having your deposit forfeited then the lawyer is left exposed. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that just because the seller has entered into an exclusivity contract they will sell to you. They may be in contravention of the contract if they receive a large enough financial inducement to do so because an aggrieved purchaser with the benefit of a lockout agreement will still be obliged establish consequential losses from the breach and these may not equalise the financial benefit that the owner may obtain by reneging on the agreement, no matter how morally shameful the behaviour is.
I have recentlydiscovered that Stirling Law have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Wheatley for a purchase of a freehold house 18 months ago. How can I check that my home is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest way to check if the property is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Wheatley conveyancing specialists.
How does conveyancing in Wheatley differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Wheatley contact us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because builders in Wheatley usually buy the site, 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 conveyancing solicitors 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.

Jane (my partner) and I may need to sub-let our Wheatley ground floor flat for a while due to a new job. We instructed a Wheatley conveyancing firm in 2001 but they have closed and we did not think at the time seek any guidance as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?
Notwithstanding that your last Wheatley conveyancing lawyer is not around you can check your lease to see if it allows you to sublet the premises. The accepted inference is that if the deeds are non-specific, subletting is permitted. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you must obtain consent from your landlord or some other party in advance of subletting. The net result is that you cannot sublet in the absence of prior consent. Such consent must not not be unreasonably withheld. If the lease prohibits you from subletting the property you will need to ask your landlord for their consent.
