My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Wormwood Scrubs. I I would like to check whether they are on the Birmingham Midshires conveyancing panel. Can you assist?
The first thing to do is e-mail the solicitor and enquire if they are on the lender panel. Otherwise please get in touch with Birmingham Midshires who may be able to assist.
I am assisting my aunt sell her property in Wormwood Scrubs. Does the conveyancing solicitor order an energy performance certificate or it is for the seller to see to?
Following the demise of Home Packs, EPC’s was kept a mandatory component of moving house. An EPC needs to be to hand prior to the property being marketed. It is not as aspect of the sale process that lawyers ordinarily arrange. If you are instructing a Wormwood Scrubs conveyancing lawyer they may be able to arrange EPC’s given their contacts with reputable local assessors
My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Wormwood Scrubs. Conveyancing is required. What are my next steps?
Having legally bound yourself to purchase you will need to instruct a conveyancing practitioner soon as you now have a pending a drop dead date to complete the transaction.

In the case of leasehold property the legal papers may contain a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing documentation pertinent to leasehold premises. You should pass this on to your appointed conveyancing solicitor at the earliest opportunity.

I am intent on selling our property in Wormwood Scrubs and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used an online conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Wormwood Scrubs. We have lived in Wormwood Scrubs for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that the buyers are looking for.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. What do they say? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)
How does conveyancing in Wormwood Scrubs differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Wormwood Scrubs approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because new home sellers in Wormwood Scrubs typically 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 Wormwood Scrubs or who has acted in the same development.
I opted to have a survey done on a house in Wormwood Scrubs in advance of instructing lawyers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. Our surveyor has said that some banks will not grant a loan on this type of premises.
It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different instructions for example to Nationwide. If you e-mail us we can look into this further via the appropriate bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Wormwood Scrubs. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
