We are due to move property in July. Should my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you recommend a removal company in Turvey. Conveyancing firm was found before I stumbled across this site.

On the day of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from the selling agent but this should only be done when the sellers conveyancers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be passed over. You should tell the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a specific removal company but can assist you in finding a conveyancing in Turvey or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Turvey.

We were going to get a OIP from Virgin Money this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Virgin Money recommend any Turvey solicitors on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?

You will need to appoint Turvey solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Virgin Money through the process.

I have paid off my mortgage with TSB. I assume I don't need a Turvey conveyancer on the TSB panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.

If you have finished paying off your TSB mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the TSB mortgage from the register. TSB, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:

1. but are not moving to another property
2. where TSB has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
3. TSB has instructed the Land Registry to do so

What will a local search inform me concerning the house I am buying in Turvey?

Turvey conveyancing often starts with the applying for local authority searches directly from your local Authority or through a personal search organisations for example Searches UK The local search plays an important role in most Turvey conveyancing purchase; as long as you don’t want any nasty once you have moved into your new home. The search will reveal data on, amongst other things, details on planning applications relevant to the property (whether granted or refused), building control history, any enforcement action, restrictions on permitted development, nearby road schemes, contaminated land and radon gas; in all a total of thirteen subject headings.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our house are lost. The conveyancers who did the conveyancing in Turvey 5 years ago no longer exist. Will I be able to sell the house?

As long as you have a registered title the information relating to your proprietorship will be documented by HMLR under a Title Number. It is possible to perform a search at the Land Registry, locate your property and get up to date copies of the Registered Entries for a small fee. Where the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will in most cases hold a file copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be retrieved for £20 inclusive of VAT.

About to purchase a new build flat in Turvey. Conveyancing is a frightening process 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 is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Turvey

There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. 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 element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Turvey is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can give?

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