I was told today by my lender that my Leeswood property lawyer is not on the lender Solicitor panel. How can I be certain whether this is indeed the case?
The best course of action for you to take is to contact your Leeswood conveyancer. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to inform you of the situation. Where they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the conveyancing panel for your mortgage company.
Our lawyer has discovered a defect with the lease for the apartment we are purchasing in Leeswood. The other side have offered title insurance as a solution. We are happy with insurance and will cover the costs. Our solicitor has advised that he must ensure that the bank is willing to move forward with this solution. Who is the client here, us or the bank?
Notwithstanding that you have a mortgage offer from the lender does not mean to say that the property will meet their conditions for the purposes of a mortgage. Your lawyer has to ensure that the lease has to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions. You and the bank are the client. These conveyancing instructions must be adhered to.
As someone with no idea as to the Leeswood conveyancing process what is your top tip you can give me concerning the house moving process in Leeswood
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Leeswood or throughout Flintshire is often a confrontational experience. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is an abundance of room for conflict between you and others involved in the home moving process. E.g., the vendor, property agent and on occasion the bank. Choosing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Leeswood is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the legal process whose interest is to protect your legal interests and to protect you.
There is a distinct creep in the "blame" culture- someone must be at fault for the process taking so long. You your first instinct should be to trust your solicitor ahead of the other parties in the conveyancing process.
Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Leeswood. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.
