My partner and I are purchasing our first home. Our conveyancer has calledto ask if we wish to order supplemental conveyancing searches. As novices we in the dark as to what's relevant for conveyancing in Morden
The range of Morden conveyancing searches depends primarily on the premises, the location, the likelihood of any of these risks, your knowledge of the region and risks, your overall attitude to risk. What matters is that you properly appreciate what information the searches could supply. Then you can make a decision if you consider that you need that information. If unsure, ask the property lawyer to offer guidance.
Do lenders provide you with an approved list of Morden conveyancing solicitors? How do you know who is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel?
Morden conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Coventry BS directly.
Do the Building Society Association intend to launch a searchable register to list practices on the Darlington Building Society conveyancing panel for example in Morden?
We are not aware of any plans on the part of the BSA to develop such a tool.
How does conveyancing in Morden differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Morden come to us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because developers in Morden usually acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Morden or who has acted in the same development.
