I am assisting my step-mother sell her flat in Alsager. Does the conveyancer order the energy assessment or do I organise this?
After the demise of HIPs, EPC’s remained a mandatory element of selling a house. An EPC must be commissioned before the property is advertised. This is not as aspect of the sale process that lawyers ordinarily arrange. If you are using a Alsager conveyancing practitioner they may be willing to arrange energy performance certificates given their contacts with reputable Alsager accredited person
Is it the case that all Alsager CQS (Conveyancing Quality Scheme) solicitors are on the Aldermore conveyancing panel?
A selection of banks and building societies now utilise the accreditation scheme as the starting point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander. The Law Society’s CQS membership however is no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. Nevertheless,the CML have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for solicitors wishing to remain on their approved list of firms.
We previously selected conveyancing lawyers located in Alsager on the Lloyds solicitor panel. They are now charging me an additional charge for the legal aspects of the Lloyds mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Lloyds?
As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your solicitor may charge a fee for this. This charge is not set by Lloyds but by your Alsager solicitor. Some firms on the Lloyds panel will charge ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.
It has been four months following my purchase conveyancing in Alsager took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
