Do I need to attend the offices of the solicitor to sign the legal charge? If so, I will instruct a firm who offer conveyancing in Sipson so that I can attend their offices when needed.

Most conveyancing panel lawyers for lenders undertake the vast majority of communications through Royal Mail, e-mail or over the phone. This enables them to undertake the conveyancing transaction no matter where you live in the country. Nevertheless you can see if you can still book an appointment to visit conveyancing lawyer if needed.

Forgive me if this question is silly but I am wet behind the ears as FTB of a garden flat in Sipson. Do I collect the keys to the property on the completion date from my conveyancer? If this is the case, I will find a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Sipson?

There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will electronically transfer the purchase money to the owner’s solicitors, and once they have received this, you will be able to pick up the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen early afternoon.

Can you help - my lawyer says that breach of easement insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Sipson conveyancing?

The right level of breach of easement indemnity insurance should be dictated by who your lender. It would differ for example between Yorkshire Building Society and The Royal Bank of Scotland. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to borrowers take out such policies.

I happen to be the only recipient of my late father’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Sipson. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in April. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership may be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in April. Will no one buy the property for half a year?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be affected by that. many mortgage companies would take a pragmatic view as this obligation is chiefly there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of property.

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Sipson. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.
