I decided to go with a local solicitor for my conveyancing in St Giles last week. Upon checking the Terms and Conditions I seewe are on the hook for charges even if the sale aborts. Would I be best advised to appoint an on-line lawyer promoting no move no charge conveyancing in St Giles?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be higher to offset the transactions that do not go ahead. Do bear in mind that such promotions generally do not protect you from expenditure for example St Giles conveyancing search costs.
My nephew is purchasing a house that has just been built in St Giles with a home loan from Kent Reliance. His conveyancer has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. This document is news to me - what is it and who needs sight of it?
The form is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when asked. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
My brother-in-law has suggested I instruct a conveyancing solicitor in St Giles. I I am struggling to find out whether they are on the Platform Home Loans Ltd approved list of lawyers. Can you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?
The first thing to do is contact the conveyancer and ask them whether they are on the lender panel. Alternatively please call Platform Home Loans Ltd who may be able to confirm.
