Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Whitnash

We are selling our flat in Whitnash. Does my property lawyer need to be required to be on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their requirements fairly frequently in recent years.

What will a local search inform me about the house I am buying in Whitnash?

Whitnash conveyancing often commences with the ordering local authority searches directly from your local Authority or through a personal search organisations such as Searchflow The local search plays a central role in most Whitnash conveyancing purchase; that is if you don’t want any nasty once you have moved into your property. The search will provide data on, amongst other things, details on planning applications applicable to the property (whether granted or refused), building control history, any enforcement action, restrictions on permitted development, nearby road schemes, contaminated land and radon gas; in all a total of 13 subject sections.

I have todaydiscovered that Action Conveyancing have been shut down. They carried out my conveyancing in Whitnash for a purchase of a freehold house 12 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?

The quickest method to check if the premises is in your name, you can make 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 Whitnash conveyancing specialists.

How does conveyancing in Whitnash differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Whitnash contact us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is built. This is because builders in Whitnash typically purchase 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 conveyancers 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 Whitnash or who has acted in the same development.

I opted to have a survey done on a house in Whitnash ahead of instructing lawyers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the property. The surveyor has said that some mortgage companies tend refuse to issue a loan on this type of premises.

It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different instructions for example to Halifax. If you e-mail us we can check with the appropriate lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Whitnash. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

Expecting to exchange soon on a basement flat in Whitnash. Conveyancing lawyers assured me that they report fully tomorrow. Are there areas in the report that I should be focusing on?

The report on title for your leasehold conveyancing in Whitnash should include some of the following:

    What remedies are open the freeholder should you breach a clause of your lease? Setting out your rights in relation to common areas in the building.E.G., does the lease contain a right of way over an accessway or hallways? Your solicitors should enable you to have an understanding of the building insurance obligations It needs to be made clear to you whether the lease allows you to change or upgrade aspects of the flat- you should know whether it applies to all alterations or just structural alteration, and whether consent is required Alterations to the premises

I own a 2 bed flat in Whitnash, conveyancing having been completed half a dozen years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension?
