Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Ravenscourt Park

Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my solicitor in Ravenscourt Park is not on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of the firm’s work?

It would not be wise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator revealed that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) lack of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should simply call the Ravenscourt Park conveyancing practice and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your lender.

My brother and I have recently acquired a property in Ravenscourt Park. We have since encountered a number of problems with the property which we believe were omitted in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? What searches should? have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Ravenscourt Park?

It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are unique to conveyancing in Ravenscourt Park. Conveyancing searches and due diligence undertaken as part of the buying process are designed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a property owner answers a form known as a SPIF. If the information ends up being misleading, then you may have a claim against the vendor for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Ravenscourt Park.

How does conveyancing in Ravenscourt Park differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Ravenscourt Park approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Ravenscourt Park tend to 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Ravenscourt Park or who has acted in the same development.
