There are many firms of solicitors advertising at first sight what seems to be very low prices.

Our mortgage company has recommended a law firm on their panel based in Woodthorpe but I would rather choose a conveyancing lawyer in Woodthorpe local to me. Are you able to assist?

Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly picked up during conveyancing in Woodthorpe?

Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Woodthorpe. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’

How does conveyancing in Woodthorpe differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Woodthorpe come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because new home sellers in Woodthorpe usually 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 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 used to new build conveyancing in Woodthorpe or who has acted in the same development.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Woodthorpe is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Woodthorpe are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Woodthorpe you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Woodthorpe may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

I have been Googling for Woodthorpe conveyancing quotes online. Can I be sure that all the Woodthorpe practices that are identified on your site are on the bank conveyancing panel?

The solicitor and licensed conveyancing practices on our directory have assured us via an online form that they are on the lender panel and agreed to advise us to take down their listing in the event of removal off of the mortgage company panel. To date we have not been informed by either a mortgage company or a member of the public that the data about a specific Woodthorpe firm being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel is not accurate.
