I am planning to move property in May. Will my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Stechford. Conveyancing lawyer was chosen prior to coming across your site.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the keys from your selling agent however this should only take place once the vendors lawyers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be released. You should tell the removal company that they can start moving you in. We do not recommend a specific removal company but can assist you in finding a conveyancing in Stechford or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Stechford.
We had appointed solicitors with offices in Stechford on the Nottingham solicitor panel. They are now charging me an additional amount for dealing with the Nottingham mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Nottingham?
Provided it is contained in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your lawyer can levy a fee for this. This charge is not dictated by Nottingham but by your Stechford lawyer. Plenty of firms on the Nottingham panel will levy ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.
My offer was accepted on a property in Stechford on 8/3/2024, valuation was booked 4 days later, received a clean bill of health. Solicitor retained, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Kent Reliance and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?
A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Kent Reliance to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
