My husband and I decided to purchase a 2 bedroom apartment in Framlingham with a mortgage from Godiva Mortgages Ltd.We like our Framlingham conveyancing lawyer but Godiva Mortgages Ltd says he's not listed on their approved list of firms. It seems we have no choice but to instruct a Godiva Mortgages Ltd panel solicitor or retain our preferred solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
Unfortunately,no. The home loan offered to you contains various provisions, a common one being that lawyers will be on the Godiva Mortgages Ltd solicitor panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Godiva Mortgages Ltd
My wife and I are purchasing a apartment in Framlingham. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a lawyer? At some point we will need to deposit money into their account. What is the protection we have from them run away with our monies?
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.
I'm the only recipient of my late grandmother’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Framlingham. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in July. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my property ownership may be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the property in July. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The CML handbook requires conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you may be impacted by that. Most banks would take a pragmatic view as this clause primarily exists to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of property.
We were going to get a AIP from Santander this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Santander recommend any Framlingham solicitors on the Santander conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Framlingham solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Santander conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Santander through the process.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Framlingham?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Framlingham. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
Been looking for a lawyer for freehold sale conveyancing in Framlingham. I'm selling, uncomplicated no mortgage to pay off, no rush, no onward chain. Had an estimate from a conveyancer for nine hundred pounds including VAT which is a little steep given that its so straightforward. Can I pay less for conveyancing in Framlingham?
As it’s a sale only, £500 + VAT would be about the best for a Framlingham solicitor firm.
