I am purchasing a flat and require a conveyancing solicitor in Ladbroke Grove who is on the Clydesdale approved. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a solicitor?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Clydesdale in certain locations such as Ladbroke Grove. We dont recommend any particular firm.
We have agreed to purchase a house in Ladbroke Grove. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender UBS be concerned?
As your lender is UBS your lawyer must check the formal requirements outlined in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for UBS. The CML Handbook contains minimum requirements for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to UBS where a lease does not comply with these requirements. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not limited to Ladbroke Grove.
We expect to receive a AIP from Aldermore this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Aldermore recommend any Ladbroke Grove solicitors on the Aldermore conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?
You will need to appoint Ladbroke Grove solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Aldermore through the process.
My husband and I are in the process of viewing flats in Ladbroke Grove and I am now considering a potential offer. Is it sensible to have a lawyer on ‘stand by’? I will be getting a mortgage with Nottingham.
You should start obtaining conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their details on to the selling agent. Given that you are obtaining a mortgage with Nottingham, ask your prospective lawyers if they are on the Nottingham conveyancing panel otherwise they can't do the mortgage legal work.
The deeds to my home are lost. The conveyancers who conducted the conveyancing in Ladbroke Grove 5 years ago are no longer around. What are my options?
Gone are the days when you need to hold title deeds to prove you are the registered proprietor of land or property, given that the Land Registry have everything they need in a digital format.
I have been advised by numerous property agents in Ladbroke Grove to get a quote from a conveyancer on your site. Is there a financial upside for Estate Agents to market your lawyers over and above another?
We refuse to make any financial incentive for pointing buyers and sellers our way. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission as home movers will think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I getting any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
Me and my partner have today had a bid accepted on our 1st home in Ladbroke Grove, and are about to get solicitors appointed. I have utilised the numerous rating based websites and the fee estimates are from all across the the UK. Is it advisable to have a Ladbroke Grove property lawyer local to our potential new home? We are willing to do all the communicating over the internet, but I guess at some stage we will be required to visit the conveyancer's office to sign documents?
The conveyancer does not need to be in Ladbroke Grove, but choosing local means that you have the option to go in if required, by way of example, if a signature is needed urgently. In addition, a Ladbroke Grove solicitor have established relationships with local agents and (if the vendor has instructed a local solicitor) with them, which will help smooth the process.
