My fiancee and I are acquiring our first home. Our solicitor has calledto check if we wish to order supplemental conveyancing searches. We are really unsure what's necessary for conveyancing in Malvern
The scope of Malvern conveyancing searches depends primarily on the property, the location, the probability of any of these risks, your knowledge of the locality and risks, your general approach to risk. What is important is that you properly understand what information each search could supply. Then you can make a decision if you consider that you need that information. If in doubt, ask the conveyancer to guide you.

We previously chose conveyancing lawyers locally in Malvern on the UBS solicitor panel. They are now charging me a further charge for dealing with the UBS mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by UBS?
Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your solicitor may levy a fee for this. This fee is not set by UBS but by your Malvern solicitor. Numerous firms on the UBS panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.
Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Coventry BS. Malvern conveyancing lawyers were instructed. How long does it take for Coventry BS to issue the offer to the conveyancing practitioner?
Some lenders take longer than others. Have Coventry BS completed the valuation? Have you informed Coventry BS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
Planning on purchasing a house in Malvern. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Santander conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Malvern lawyer is on the Santander conveyancing panel.
I require expedited conveyancing in Malvern as I have a deadline to complete within 3 weeks. A mortgage is not required. Is it possible to escape the need for conveyancing searches to save money and time?
As you are not obtaining a mortgage you are at liberty not to do searches although no solicitor would advise that you don't. Drawing on our experience of conveyancing in Malvern the following are instances of what can appear and therefore affect the marketability of the property: Refused Planning Applications, Overdue Charges, Outstanding Grants, Road Schemes,...
Builders have put forward a conveyancing practitioner and I've obtained an estimate from them. They are almost two hundred pounds less expensive than my family Malvern conveyancer. What's the catch?
Developers normally have lists of conveyancing practitioners who are quick and who know the developer’s paperwork and conveyancer. Plenty of developers offer an incentive to select their approved conveyancer for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a builder will not suggest a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the transaction delayed when they require an exchange inside a month. The argument for not agreeing to use the suggested lawyer is that they may be reluctant to 'push' your interests for fear of alienating the developer. Where you have concerns that this may be the case you should remain with your local Malvern solicitor.
