I am in a contract race with another buyer for a property in Lymm. What can I do to expedite matters?

Where the seller is applying pressure to complete we would recommend that your solicitor is familiar with the location as they will have local relationships and insight. It is possible that they would have handled previoushouses in the same street. You would be best advised to use a Lymm conveyancing solicitor. In addition, make sure that the conveyancing firm is on the member panel. It is believed that just under twenty per cent of Lymm conveyancing transactions are suspended or derailed after finding out that a buyer’s conveyancer was not on their mortgage lender’s panel. In many cases this discovery resulted in the transaction being held up by as much as 21 days. It is claimed that this issue affects in the region of one hundred thousand home sales every year. Almost all Lymm conveyancing firms can not act for certain lenders so do check as early as possible.

We were going to get a OIP from Nationwide this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Nationwide recommend any Lymm solicitors on the Nationwide conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?

You will need to appoint Lymm solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Nationwide through the process.

It is not clear whether my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have telephoned my Lymm building society branch on a couple of occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they would lend. My Lymm conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- telephoned and was told they would not lend in accordance with their published requirements. I simply don't know who is right.

As long as the conveyancing practitioner is on the lender approved list, she or he must adhere to the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook requirements for the lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

Have purchased a a semi-detached house in Lymm , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to register my title? My Lymm conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be sure the registration formalities are concluded.

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Lymm registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can vary subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any third parties. At present in the region of three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Historically registration takes place once the buyer is living at the premises so post completion formalities is not typically an essential issue yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer should contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

How does conveyancing in Lymm differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Lymm come to us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because house builders in Lymm typically purchase 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 conveyancers 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 Lymm or who has acted in the same development.

As co-executor for the will of my grandmother I am selling a house in Newport but I am based in Lymm. My solicitor (who is 200 miles awayhas requested that I execute a statutory declaration before completion. Can you recommend a conveyancing solicitor in Lymm to attest this legal document for me?

strictly speaking you should not need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or solicitor will be fine regardless of whether they are Lymm based
