Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Woodborough

How up to date is your database of Woodborough solicitors on the Nationwide conveyancing panel? Do Nationwide send you an updated list?

Woodborough conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Nationwide directly.

There are plenty of conveyancing solicitors in Woodborough but how do I know who I should use?

We would encourage you not to go for the cheapest Woodborough conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of the deal.

I am purchasing a property in Woodborough. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Yorkshire BS have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

As your lender is Yorkshire BS your lawyer must comply with the formal requirements contained in Part 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Yorkshire BS. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook stipulates minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to Yorkshire BS where a lease fails to satisfy these requirements. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not restricted to Woodborough.

I can not work out if my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have telephoned my Woodborough bank branch on numerous occasions and was informed it wasn't an issue and they would lend. My Woodborough conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called to say that they refuse to lend in accordance with their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. I have no idea who is right.

Your lawyer has to follow the CML Handbook section two conditions for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

A friend recommended that where I am buying in Woodborough I should carry out a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. Can you explain what the purpose of this search is?

This is a search is usually included in the estimate for your Woodborough conveyancing searches.

It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the local Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the demographics of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime details, Local Education with maps and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful data regarding Woodborough.

I own a terraced Georgian property in Woodborough. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and Lloyds TSB Bank. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold with the matching address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?

You should assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Woodborough and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing solicitor who conducted the conveyancing.

My company is looking to lease a unit on the high street. Can you recommend lawyers offering no-move-no fees for commercial conveyancing in Woodborough for below 1500k?

We are one month into a residential purchase having been referred to a firm by the selling agent to do our conveyancing in Woodborough. We are not happy. Can you help me find new conveyancers?

A lawyer would have to be very poor to suggest replacing them. Has the loan offer been generated? If so you must inform them of the new solicitor and ensure the mortgage documents are issued to the new lawyers. Your new solicitor ideally should be on the banks panel to avoid supplemental costs and delays. That should be your first question of the new solicitors. The search tool can assist you in finding a bank approved lawyer for your conveyancing in Woodborough
