We are purchasing a property and require a conveyancing solicitor in Axbridge who is on the Coventry BS solicitor panel. Can you recommend a local solicitor?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Coventry BS . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Axbridge.
We are downsizing from our home in Axbridge and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using a factory type conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Axbridge. Having lived in Axbridge for 4 years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to obtain confirmation need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of 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 illness)
I have recentlydiscovered that Stirling Law have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Axbridge for a purchase of a freehold house 9 months ago. How can I establish that my home is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?
The easiest method to check if the premises is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Axbridge conveyancing specialists.
How does conveyancing in Axbridge differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Axbridge approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is ready to move into. This is because developers in Axbridge typically acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Axbridge or who has acted in the same development.
