At long last a loan agreement from Santander for the remortgage of my single bedroom apartment is to be issued within the next few days. Are you able to suggest a cheap conveyancing law firm in Thornaby?

You are on the wrong site if you are in need of the cheapest conveyancing in Thornaby. Our intention is to offer value for money conveyancing but our intention is not to advertise as being the cheapest. Resist the temptation to appoint organisations seducing you with £100 conveyancing in Thornaby. At best, in deciding on cheap conveyancing, you will get your money’s worth and at worst it will result in you being stung for additional fees and still not end up with the service required.

It has been 2 months since my purchase conveyancing in Thornaby took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Thornaby. Conveyancing is necessary evil 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 conveyancing.

Here are examples of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Thornaby

Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in last month in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Thornaby is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Thornaby are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Thornaby you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Thornaby 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.

Your search tool is useful but there are many lawyers listed near Thornaby being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel. It would be a lot more helpful if you could recommend a specific firm on the mortgage company approved panel?

We are not in the business of recommending one firm above another as the right Thornaby conveyancing firm for you depends on where your priorities lie. For example you may require a local firm with Thornaby knowledge or you might be looking for the low cost conveyancing. Before you appoint your lawyer we advise you to speak to two or three of the the firms listed to gain comfort as to which one is right for you..
