My home in Chafford Hundred is up for sale and I have accepted an offer. Will my conveyancing practitioner have to be required to be on the UBS conveyancing panel in order to deal with redeeming my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the UBS 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 requirements fairly frequently currently.

How does conveyancing in Chafford Hundred differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Chafford Hundred come to us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because house builders in Chafford Hundred usually buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Chafford Hundred or who has acted in the same development.
