Why do I have to pay up front when it comes to conveyancing in Temple Mills?

If you are buying a property in Temple Mills your lawyer will ask you to provide them with funds to cover the search fees. Ordinarily this is requested to cover the fees of the conveyancing searches. If any down payment is as part of the purchase price then this will be needed immediately ahead of contracts are exchanged. Any further balance that is needed will be payable a couple of days ahead of the completion date.

Me and my partner are purchasing a house in Temple Mills. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a conveyancer? On the day of competition we have to deposit funds into their account. What is the protection we have from them run away with our money?

Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.

Does a directory service exist listing Principality panel solicitors in Temple Mills on the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook Website?

Unfortunately not yet. There is no such facility on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association sites. Very few lending institutions make their panel listings viewable online. If you are looking for a Temple Mills lawyer on the Principality please use our facility.

We were going to get a DIP from Kent Reliance this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Kent Reliance recommend any Temple Mills solicitors on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?

You will need to appoint Temple Mills solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Kent Reliance through the process.

My wife and I are intent on selling our home in Temple Mills and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a nationwide conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Temple Mills. Having lived in Temple Mills for many years we know of no issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to get clarification need.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You should 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 health insurance to cover that same ailment)

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Temple Mills. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Temple Mills

There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal.

I have been advised by a number of selling agents in Temple Mills to find a conveyancer on your site. What’s the financial advantage for Estate Agents to promote your lawyers rather than another?

We refuse to make any financial incentive for directing people to this site. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission because home movers will think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
