I am assisting my sister sell her property in Rawdon. Does the solicitor order an EPC or should I organise this?
After the abolition of HIPs, EPC’s was retained a required component of moving house. An EPC must be to hand prior to the property being placed on the market. It is not something that conveyancers normally organise. If you are using a Rawdon conveyancing lawyer they may help arrange energy assessments due to their relationships with long established local assessors
I had an offer accepted on a property in Rawdon on 27/12/2024, valuation was booked 3 days after, received a clean bill of health. Property lawyer appointed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Kent Reliance and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. Are Kent Reliance entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Kent Reliance to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
Our offer on a semi in Rawdon has been agreed to, but there is a chain. The sellers have offered on a property, however it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other flats in the pipeline. I have instructed a high street conveyancing solicitor in Rawdon. What do I do now? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with TSB?
It is understandable to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (mortgage application is approx £1k, then survey, Rawdon conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is check that your conveyancing practitioner is on the TSB approved list. As to the next phase this very much depends on the specifics of your case, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market some purchasers would apply for a home loan with TSB and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to press on with searches.
Me and my brother own a renovated Edwardian house in Rawdon. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Accord Mortgages Ltd. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the matching property. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You need to review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Rawdon and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also check the situation with your conveyancing lawyer who conducted the conveyancing.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Rawdon is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Rawdon are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Rawdon you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Rawdon may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
