I just acquired a property at auction in Netherne. Conveyancing is needed. What is next?

Having to all intents and purposes signed on the dotted line you now have to instruct a conveyancing lawyer as a matter of urgency as you will have a pending a drop dead date to complete the purchase. An auction property will have a bespoke auction set of papers. This should include most,if not all of the documents that your conveyancer requires. In the case of leasehold property the auction papers may provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing paperwork specific to a leasehold property. You should pass this on to your appointed conveyancing solicitor ASAP. Do make sure that your finances are in order to complete on the date specified in the contract.

It is not clear whether my bank requires a lease extension. I have telephoned my Netherne building society branch on a couple of occasions and was informed it wasn't an issue and they will lend. My Netherne conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they will not lend based on their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. Who do I believe?

Your lawyer has to follow the CML Handbook Part 2 provisions for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

Our offer on a semi in Netherne has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The vendors have placed an offer on a property, but it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other apartments booked. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Netherne. What do I do now? At what stage do I apply for the mortgage with HSBC?

It is usual to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then survey, Netherne conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you should check that your lawyer is on the HSBC approved list. Regarding the subsequent phase this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, desire for the property and on the state of the market. In a rising market some buyers would apply for a home loan with HSBC and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their lawyer to press on with the conveyancing in Netherne.
