Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Woodcote Green

Is it the case that all Woodcote Green solicitors on the Santander conveyancing panel are overseen by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?

As solicitors, in order to be on the Santander approved list of solicitors they would need to be overseen by the SRA. Some banks do list licenced conveyancers on their panel and in such a situation the organisation would be regulated by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.

My partner and I are at the point of viewing apartments in Woodcote Green and I am now considering a potential offer. Should I already have a property lawyer in place at this stage? I will be getting a mortgage with Nottingham.

You should start requesting conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their details on to the estate agent. As you are obtaining a mortgage with Nottingham, make sure you remember to check that your lawyer is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.

After weeks of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Woodcote Green. My mortgage broker recommended their conveyancers. I paid an upfront payment of £150. A couple of days later, the solicitor contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Virgin Money panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

My wife and I have a terraced Victorian property in Woodcote Green. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Barclays . I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the matching property. Is it worth asking Barclays to clarify?

You need to 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 Woodcote Green 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 buyers. You can also enquire as to the position with the conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.

How does conveyancing in Woodcote Green differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Woodcote Green come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because developers in Woodcote Green tend to 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 Woodcote Green or who has acted in the same development.
