We are a couple about to sign contracts for a freehold house in Stratford Upon Avon. We have hit a snag. The mortgage offer with TSB runs out on 27/6/2024 but the vendors are insisting on a completion date of 1/7/2024. Can one extend the mortgage expiry date?

The best person to address this concern is your conveyancer who will hopefully determine if he or she is better off negotiating with the mortgage broker, owner’s lawyers, selling agents or indeed all three based on the circumstances your house move as of today.

It is is a decade since I acquired my home in Stratford Upon Avon. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been instructed on the sale but I am unable to locate the title deeds. Will this cause complications?

Don’t worry too much. First there is a chance that the deeds will be with your lender or they could be in the possession of the solicitor who oversaw your purchase. Secondly in all probability the land will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Stratford Upon Avon involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your property is not registered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.

There is lots of here concerning conveyancing in Stratford Upon Avon but can you isolate your top tip for finding the right conveyancer in Stratford Upon Avon

It would be unwise to be tempted by the cheapest Stratford Upon Avon conveyancing costs illustration. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. 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 advance.

I am aiming to move house in May. Will my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Stratford Upon Avon. Conveyancing solicitor was found prior to coming across this website.

On the afternoon of completion you can collect the house keys from your selling agent but this should only be done after the vendors conveyancers confirm to the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be released. After that you will need to tell the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a specific removal organisation but can help you choose a conveyancing in Stratford Upon Avon or a legal practice with expertise in conveyancing in Stratford Upon Avon.

I had an offer accepted on an apartment in Stratford Upon Avon on 4/3/2024, valuation was booked 2 days after, all came back fine. Property lawyer instructed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Co-operative and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. Are Co-operative entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?

Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Co-operative to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
