We are looking to buy a flat and need a conveyancing solicitor in Rushden who is on the Yorkshire BS approved panel. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a firm?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Yorkshire BS . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Rushden.
I am selling my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in January 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, UBS are being pedantic. The Rushden solicitor who is on the UBS conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but UBS are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do UBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that UBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why UBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
I had an offer accepted on an apartment in Rushden on 25/10/2024, valuation was booked 3 days later, all came back fine. Property lawyer retained, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Aldermore and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Are Aldermore entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Aldermore to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
Our sealed bid on a detached house in Rushden has been accepted, the vendors do nevertheless have an associated purchase. The owners have placed an offer on a property, however it’s not yet tied up, and have viewings of other apartments in the pipeline. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Rushden. What should be my next step? At what stage do I apply for the mortgage with UBS?
It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is approx £1k, then survey, Rushden conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to check that your conveyancing practitioner is on the UBS conveyancing panel. Concerning the next stages this very much depends on the uniqueness of your transaction, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market some home buyers will apply for the mortgage with UBS and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to press on with searches.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Rushden is the location of the property. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in Rushden are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Rushden you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Rushden may determine 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.
As co-executor for the will of my grandfather I am selling a house in Neath but reside in Rushden. My solicitor (based 235 miles awayrequires that I execute a stat dec prior to the transaction finalising. Can you recommend a conveyancing solicitor in Rushden who can witness and place their company stamp on the document?
strictly speaking you are not likely to be required to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily any notary public or qualified solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are Rushden based
