When will exchange of contracts take place for residential conveyancing in Ickenham and do I need to be at the lawyers office?
If you are near to our conveyancing solicitors in Ickenham you are welcome to come in to sign contracts. That being said, the firms we work with supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The signing of the contract is not the point of no return. A signed contract simply enables the solicitor to exchange contracts at the appropriate time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Ickenham)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.
My property lawyer in Ickenham is not listed on the Barclays Approved Panel. Can I still continue with my prefered solicitor notwithstanding that they are not on the Barclays list of approved lawyers?
The limited options available to you here include:
- Complete the purchase with your existing Ickenham lawyers but Barclays will need to instruct a solicitor on their panel. This will inevitably rack up the total legal charges as well as result in delays.
- Choose an alternative practitioner to act in the purchase, remembering to check they are Barclays approved.
- Try to convince your Barclays solicitor to seek to join the Barclays panel
