We are aiming to move house in November. Will my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Disley. Conveyancing lawyer was chosen before I stumbled across this page.

On the day of completion you can pick up the keys from the property agent but this should only take place when the vendors conveyancers confirm to the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be collected. Subsequently you can inform the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal company but can help you find a conveyancing in Disley or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Disley.

Please help - my lawyer advises that chancel insurance is required on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Disley conveyancing?

The appropriate level of chancel indemnity insurance should be dictated by who your lender. It would differ for example between Barclays and Chelsea Building Society. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.

We had instructed conveyancers with offices in Disley on the Kent Reliance solicitor panel. They have just billed me a separate fee for the legal aspects of the Kent Reliance mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Kent Reliance?

Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your solicitor is entitled to levy a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by Kent Reliance but by your Disley conveyancer. Numerous firms on the Kent Reliance panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee but many practices incorporate it on their overall fee.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Disley is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?

Flying freeholds in Disley are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Disley you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Disley 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 premises.
