I am not well enough to travel far from Kingston Vale. Can you please explain the reason why all Kingston Vale lawyers are not on all bank panels?
Lenders tend to restrict either the nature or volume of conveyancing solicitors on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such criteria being that the firm must have two or more partners. As well as restricting the structure of firm, some banks for example HSBC decided to reduce the size of their panel they allow to represent them. It is worth noting that lenders have no responsibility for the standard of advice provided by any Kingston Vale conveyancer on their approved list. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the culling of solicitor panels from 2008 even though there are conflicting points of view concerning the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Data published by HMLR exposes that thousands of conveyancing organisations only carry out a couple of conveyances annually. Those vindicating conveyancing panel consolidation question why conveyancing firms should have any entitlement to be listed on a bank panel when it is apparent that property law is not their speciality?
My colleague recommended that where I am purchasing in Kingston Vale I should carry out a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?
This is a search is sometimes included in the estimate for your Kingston Vale conveyancing searches. It is a large report of more than thirty pages, listing and detailing significant information about Kingston Vale around the property and the people living there. It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the local Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average Property Price, Crime details, Kingston Vale Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information concerning Kingston Vale.
three months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Kingston Vale took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £170,000. 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.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Kingston Vale is the location of the property. Is there any advice you can give?
Flying freeholds in Kingston Vale are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Kingston Vale you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Kingston Vale may decide 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 property.
