Do the conveyancing lawyers listed on your site execute auction conveyancing in Burnopfield?
We know of a few auction practitioners we can put you in touch with those conducting auction conveyancing. Burnopfield is one of the many locations in which our lawyers have a presence.
We're in Burnopfield, First time buyers buying with a mortgage (lender is Leeds Building Society , and our solicitor is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel). How long should the conveyancing process take?
The fact that your lawyer is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel is a help. It would almost certainly delay matters if they were not. However, no solicitor should guarantee a timeframe for your conveyancing, due to third parties outside of your control such as delays caused by lenders,conveyancing search providers or by the other side’s solicitors. The time taken is often determined by the number of parties in a chain.
four months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Burnopfield 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 premises 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.
Due to the input of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Burnopfield ahead of appointing lawyers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. Our surveyor advised that some lenders will not grant a mortgage on this type of premises.
