I am in the market for a reasonably priced conveyancer. Do I opt for an online conveyancer as opposed to a family Bromham conveyancing lawyer?
Existing third party connections are another important factor to consider when choosing conveyancing solicitors. Bromham law firms benefit from connections with lenders and Bromham, local authorities, valuers and other conveyancing firms meaning you will move in shortest possible time. Hosting a wealth of knowledge of the local area is also a plus .
In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Bromham? What am I being asked for?
Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering regulations require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to check the ID of the person or body they are dealing with prior to agreeing to accepting their conveyancing retainer. The Client Care letter that you need to sign will no doubt confirm this. Your lender will also require certain documents to be checked. If you are unwilling to hand over ID verification documents, your conveyancer would not be able to act for you.
I am about to put a bid on a leasehold flat in Bromham. The selling agents advise that it is standard for flats in Bromham to have less than 75 years unexpired on the lease. I am taking out a loan with Accord Mortgages. Is this going to be a problem if the lease has 72 years remaining.

How does conveyancing in Bromham differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Bromham come to us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because builders in Bromham usually buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Bromham or who has acted in the same development.
In what way does the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my commercial premises in Bromham and how can your lawyers assist?
The particular law that you refer to affords security of tenure to commercial leaseholders, giving them the a statutory right to apply to court for a continuation of occupancy when the lease comes to an end. There are certain specified grounds where a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complex. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing solicitors who use the act for protection and handle your commercial conveyancing in Bromham
