Me and my partner are purchasing a flat in Bletchley. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a conveyancer? On the day of competition we will need to send funds into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our money?
Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.
We previously chose conveyancers based in Bletchley on the Aldermore solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a separate charge for dealing with the Aldermore mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee specified by Aldermore?
Provided it is contained in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your conveyancing practitioner may charge a fee for this. The fee is not dictated by Aldermore but by your Bletchley conveyancer. Plenty of firms on the Aldermore panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.
My wife and I are in the process of viewing houses in Bletchley and I am now considering a potential offer. Is it premature to have a solicitor in place? I intend to finance via a home loan with Clydesdale.
It would be wise to commence your search sooner rather than later. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their contact information on to the estate agent. Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Clydesdale, make sure you remember to check that your lawyer is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel.
Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my home are lost. The lawyers who handled the conveyancing in Bletchley 4 years ago no longer exist. Will I be able to sell the house?
Nowadays there are copies made of almost everything, and your conveyancer should know precisely where to locate all the appropriate documentation so you may buy or dispose of your house without a hitch. If copies are not available, your lawyer can arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities protecting you against possible claims on the property.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Bletchley is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Bletchley are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Bletchley you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bletchley may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
