My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Broxbourne. I I would like to check whether they are on the approved list of lawyers. Can you help?
The first thing you should do is contact the solicitor and ask them whether they can act for the lender. Otherwise you can get in touch with who may be able to assist.
My wife and I purchasing a 3 bedroom semi in Broxbourne. We would like to convert the garage to an office at the house.Will the conveyancing process involve checks to determine if these works are prohibited?
Your property lawyer should review the deeds as conveyancing in Broxbourne will sometimes reveal restrictions in the title deeds which prevent certain changes or necessitated the permission of another owner. Some additions need local authority planning consent and approval in compliance with building regulations. Certain areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or affect extensions. It would be sensible to check these issues with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.
My father-in-law has encouraged me to instruct his lawyers for conveyancing in Broxbourne. Should I choose my own solicitor?
No doubt the ideal way to choose a conveyancing practitioner is to have guidance from friends or family who have actually previously instructed the conveyancer that you are are thinking of instructing.
