Can you help? My Nantwich conveyancer is assuring me that he is legally obliged toorder Nantwich conveyancing searches asthe firm are on the Virgin Moneysolicitor panel. Do I not have any options here?
Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. Given that you are taking out a loan with a bank your solicitor has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your lawyer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the CML Handbook specifications . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Nantwich conveyancing searches.
It is 10 years ago since I acquired my home in Nantwich. Conveyancing lawyers have now been appointed on the sale but I am unable to locate the title documents. Will this jeopardise the sale?
You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be with your lender or they could still be with the conveyancers who acted in the purchase. Secondly the chances are that the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring up to date copy of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Nantwich relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Nantwich is the location of the property. Can you offer any advice?
Flying freeholds in Nantwich are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Nantwich you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Nantwich 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 residence.
Been on the hunt for a property lawyer for leasehold sale conveyancing in Nantwich. I'm selling, uncomplicated no mortgage to pay off, no hurry, currently empty. Received an estimate from a property lawyer for £1000 plus VAT which is a little expensive considering its so straightforward. Can I pay less for conveyancing in Nantwich?
Considering it’s a sale only, £500 + VAT should be about the lowest for a Nantwich solicitor firm.
