Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Whiteley

My husband and I are looking to acquire a property in Whiteley and are in fact using a Whiteley conveyancing firm. Within the last couple of days our solicitor has forwarded the sale agreement to be signed with a detailed report with a view to exchanging next week. TSB have this evening contacted us to advise us that there is now an issue as our Whiteley lawyer is not on their approved list of lawyers. Is this a problem?

If you are buying a property with the assistance of a mortgage it is usual for the purchasers' solicitors to also represent the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a law firm has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the law firm to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the firm has to satisfy and indeed some lenders now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your property lawyer should contact your mortgage company and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on the bank's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Whiteley solicitors, in which case it will likely add costs, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another lawyer into the mix.

Why do I have to pay up front for conveyancing in Whiteley?

Where you are retaining lawyers for conveyancing in Whiteley your lawyer will request that you place them with monies to cover the search fees. This will be the total of the cost of the conveyancing searches. If any down payment is as part of the sale price then this will be required immediately prior to contracts are exchanged. The closing balance that is needed should be transferred shortly before completion.

Can you clarify what the consequences are if my lawyer’s firm is suspended from the Coventry BS Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Whiteley?

First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

I'm converting the mortgage on my primary home to a BTL loan with Skipton Building Society and I will use the ballance of the raised equity as a down payment on another house. The neighborhood we are talking about is Whiteley. Will your solicitors be able to act for the two banks and link together the conveyances?

Make use of our search tool on this site to check that the lawyers are approved by both mortgage companies. On the basis that they are the solicitor should be able to simultaneously deal with the two transactions but you should have a chat with you conveyancer and communicate your desired outcome and requirements.

I am thinking of appointing a conveyancing practitioner in Whiteley for my house move. Is it possible to check a solicitor's record with the profession’s regulator?

One may search for presented Solicitor Regulator Association (SRA) determinations arising from investigations from 2008 onwards. Go to Check a solicitor's record. For details Pre 2008, or to check a solicitors record, ring 0870 606 2555, 08.00 - 18.00 any week day save for Tuesday when lines open at 9.30am. For non-uk callers, dial +44 (0)121 329 6800. The regulator may recorded call for training purposes.

Can a conveyancer remove a name from the title of my property in Whiteley ?
