We chose a high street lawyer for my conveyancing in Wennington yesterday. Reviewing the Ts and Cs it is apparent thatwe are responsible for fees even where the transaction does not complete. Should I go with them or choose an internet lawyer advertising no move no charge conveyancing in Wennington?

Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the fee levels will tend to be be uplifted to offset the transactions that do not go ahead. Also remember that such promotions generally do not cover expenses e.g. Wennington conveyancing search costs.

We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The lender mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to use their panel conveyancer as I would prefer to appoint a high street conveyancing solicitor in Wennington?

Do check but the the likelihood is that appoint one of their panel solicitors if you want the "fee-free" offer. Call the bank to check if they allow a cash alternative. Some mortgage companies have previously offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor in Wennington.

Just acquired a terraced house in Wennington , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Wennington conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to check that my ownership is recorded.

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Wennington registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry have to notify any third parties. Currently in the region of three quarters of submission are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Registration is effected after the buyer has moved in to the premises so an expedited registration is not always top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in Wennington I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Wennington suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.

At what point do I incur stamp duty due for my Wennington property purchase?

The conveyancing practitioner will fill out a stamp duty return on your behalf during your Wennington conveyancing transaction for signature. After completion your solicitor will submit the STL application to the Tax Authorities and - assuming they have the funds - settle any tax bill liability on your behalf.
