As someone with no idea as to conveyancing in Elmswell what is your top tip you can give me concerning the ownership transfer in Elmswell

You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Elmswell or throughout Suffolk is often a confrontational process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is plenty of opportunity for confrontation between you and other parties involved in the house moving process. For example, the vendor, selling agent and even potentially a bank. Appointing a law firm for your conveyancing in Elmswell should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the transaction whose interest is to protect your legal interests and to keep you safe.

There is a distinct emergence of a "blame" culture- someone must be blamed for the process taking so long. You should always trust your conveyancer ahead of the other parties in the conveyancing process.

It has been 2 months since my purchase conveyancing in Elmswell concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £180,000. 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 residence 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.

Our offer on semi in Elmswell was agreed to, but there is a chain. The vendors have put an offer on somewhere, however it’s not yet agreed to, and are looking at other apartments in the pipeline. I have chosen a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Elmswell. What should be my next step? At what point should I apply for the mortgage with Leeds Building Society?

It is usual to have anxieties where there is a chain given your reluctance to incur costs too early (home loan application is approx £1k, then survey, Elmswell conveyancing search costs, etc). The first course of action is to check that your property lawyer is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. Regarding the next phase this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market some buyers would apply for a home loan with Leeds Building Society and arrange for the survey and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their property lawyer to move forward with the conveyancing in Elmswell.
