Can conveyancing in Beddington to be concluded in under a month?

Where the seller is applying a tight deadline for your conveyancing we would recommend that your solicitor is familiar with the location as they will make use of local contacts and know-how. It is possible that they would have transacted previousproperties in the same street. You would be best advised to use a Beddington conveyancing lawyer. Second, double check that the lawyer is on the on the approved list for your mortgage company. It is estimated that just under twenty per cent of Beddington conveyancing transactions are suspended or jeopardised after finding out that a purchaser’s conveyancer was not on their banks member panel. This can often result in the legal transfer of property being held up by almost three weeks. It is estimated that this issue affects approximately 100,000 home moves every year. Many Beddington conveyancing practices can not represent certain lenders so do check at the outset.

We are selling our property in Beddington and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. Any local lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a nationwide conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Beddington. Having lived in Beddington for six years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to obtain confirmation that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You must check with 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 sickness)

I have recentlybeen informed that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Beddington for a purchase of a freehold house 10 months ago. How can I be sure that my home is not still registered in the name of the previous owner?

The quickest way to check if the premises is registered to you, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Beddington conveyancing specialists.

I was pointed in your direction by a number of property agents in Beddington to select a conveyancer on your site. Is there a financial upside for Estate Agents to recommend your services over another?

We don’t offer any financial incentive for directing people to this site. We thought it would be too underhand a fee because home movers will think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

I inherited a ground-floor 1960’s flat in Beddington. Given that I can not reach agreement with the landlord, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal determine the amount payable for a lease extension?

in cases where there is a absentee landlord or where there is dispute about the premium for a lease extension, under the relevant statutes it is possible to make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal to arrive at the sum to be paid.
