We are a couple about to sign contracts for a freehold house in Wolverley. We have hit a stumbling block. The mortgage offer with Clydesdale runs out on 19/8/2025 but the sellers are suggesting a completion date of 21/8/2025. Can one prolong the mortgage expiry date?
The person best placed to deal with your concern is your solicitors who will hopefully calculate if he or she is better off negotiating with the lender, owner’s conveyancers, estate agents or possibly all parties based on the history of your transaction to date.
At what point does exchange of contracts take place for residential conveyancing in Wolverley and do I need to attend the lawyers branch?
Where you are near to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Wolverley you are invited in to sign the paperwork. That being said, the firms we work with offer a nationwide conveyancing service and provide just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The signing of the purchase agreement is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the conveyancer to address the formalities when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a lengthy "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Wolverley)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
I have been recommended by two or three local selling agents in Wolverley to choose a solicitor on your site. What’s the financial upside for Estate Agents to promote your site over alternative conveyancing organisations?
We don’t offer any financial incentive for directing people in our direction. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission because members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

I have just started marketing my garden flat in Wolverley. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, but I have just had a quarterly service charge demand – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?
The sensible thing to do is clear the service charge as usual as all ground rent and service invoices will be allotted on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
