Are the Whittlesey conveyancing solicitors identified as being on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by Yorkshire BS?
Whittlesey conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Yorkshire BS directly.
I have been referred to a conveyancing solicitor in Whittlesey. I I would like to check if they are accepted on the Barnsley Building Society conveyancing panel. Can you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?
You should contact the lawyer and ask them if they can act for the lender. Otherwise you can get in touch with Barnsley Building Society who may be able to confirm.
I purchased my home on 10 August and my personal details is yet to be registered. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Whittlesey said it should be dealt with inside ten days. Are properties in Whittlesey particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Whittlesey registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. Currently roughly 80% of submission are fully addressed within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration occurs after the new owner has moved in to the property so registration formalities is not usually primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Whittlesey is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Whittlesey are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Whittlesey you would need to get your solicitor to go 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 Whittlesey 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 residence.
I was recommended by a number of selling agents in Whittlesey to select a conveyancer on your site. Is there a financial incentive for Estate Agents to recommend your site over and above another?
We don’t make any financial incentive for pointing buyers and sellers to this site. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission because members of the public would think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
