My mortgage broker has asked me for my Manor House law firm’s panel reference for the Nat West conveyancing panel. What is the best way to discover this. I have e-mailed my local Manor House branch but they cant find it on their system.
You are best placed to get this information from your Manor House property lawyer . Most Manor House law firms will retain a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each mortgage company.
My partner and I are selling our house in Manor House and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. A high street Manor House conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a web based conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Manor House. Having lived in Manor House for many years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)
I have todaydiscovered that Arc property Solicitors have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Manor House for a purchase of a leasehold flat 18 months ago. How can I check that my home is in my name in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest way to check if the premises is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Manor House conveyancing specialists.
How does conveyancing in Manor House differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Manor House approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because developers in Manor House typically purchase the land, 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Manor House or who has acted in the same development.
