I am selling my flat in Birch and Middleton. Does my property lawyer have to be on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel in order to deal with redeeming my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their panel criteria fairly frequently in recent years.
Forgive me if this question is silly but I am unexperienced as a 1st time purchaser of a two bedroom flat in Birch and Middleton. Do I receive the keys to the house on completion from my lawyer? If so, I will appoint a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Birch and Middleton?
On the day of completion you do not need to go to the conveyancers office in Birch and Middleton. Your solicitors will electronically transfer the purchase money to the owner’s conveyancers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you will be invited to receive the keys from the property Agents and move into your new home. Usually this happens early afternoon.
We are planning to move property in April. Should my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Birch and Middleton. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen prior to coming across this website.
On the day of completion you can pick up the keys from your selling agent but this should only happen once the sellers lawyers inform the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be collected. Subsequently you can tell the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can help you choose a conveyancing in Birch and Middleton or a legal practice that specialises in conveyancing in Birch and Middleton.
After shopping around on the internet I have found a Birch and Middleton property lawyer having checked that they are on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Leeds Building Society will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Leeds Building Society will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Birch and Middleton surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Birch and Middleton?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Birch and Middleton. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
I am downsizing from my property. My previous lawyers have shut. It would be helpful to have a recommendation of a conveyancing firm. I happen to live in Birch and Middleton if that makes things easier.
