Finally the sale completed on my house in Goddington last December but the buyer keeps whats apping me to moan that their conveyancer needs to hear from mysolicitor. What should my lawyer have done now that I have sold?
Post completion of your house sale your lawyer is committed to deliver the transfer documentation and all of the paperwork to the buyer’s solicitors. If applicable, your solicitor must also send confirmation that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been repaid to the purchasers lawyers. There is unlikely to be post completion requirements just for conveyancing in Goddington.
Is it necessary during the course of the conveyancing process to have a meeting at the offices of the solicitor to execute the mortgage deed? If so, I will appoint a lawyer who conducts conveyancing in Goddington so that I can pop in to their offices if necessary.
These days approved lawyers for banks conduct all of the communications via the post, internet or over phone calls. This enables them to carry out the conveyancing transaction regardless of where you live in the country. Nevertheless you should see if you have the option of visiting the offices of your conveyancing lawyer if needed.
I am buying a terrace house in Goddington. The intention is to convert the garage to a playroom at the property.Will the conveyancing process include investigations to see if these works are permitted?
Your conveyancer will review the registered title as conveyancing in Goddington will on occasion reveal restrictions in the title deeds which prohibit categories of alterations or need the consent of another owner. Many additions call for local authority planning consent and approval in compliance with building regulations. Certain areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. It would be wise to check these things with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.
Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Skipton. Goddington conveyancing practitioners have been chosen. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Skipton?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Skipton done the survey? Have you informed Skipton as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Skipton conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in October 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, Kent Reliance are being problematic. The Goddington solicitor who is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but Kent Reliance are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Kent Reliance have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Kent Reliance have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Kent Reliance may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
