My mortgage broker says he needs my Harmondsworth solicitor’s panel reference for the Lloyds conveyancing panel. How do I discover this. I have contacted my local Harmondsworth office but they cant find it on their system.
The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Harmondsworth conveyancer . Most Harmondsworth law practices will keep a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each lender.
Would the conveyancing lawyers identified via your search tool execute conveyancing in Harmondsworth by way of an attended exchange?
There are a few conveyancing specialists who can conduct personalised exchanges. You should call us to get a conveyancing quote and details as to dates.
Forgive me if this question is silly but I am unexperienced as a first time buyer of a ground floor flat in Harmondsworth. Do I collect the keys to the premises on completion from my solicitor? If so, I will use a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Harmondsworth?
On the day of completion you will not be required to attend the conveyancers office in Harmondsworth. Your solicitors will transfer the completion advance to the vendor’s conveyancers, and once they have received this, you should be able to receive the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. Usually this happens early afternoon.
Is it the case that all Harmondsworth solicitors on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel are governed by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?
As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Clydesdale approved list of solicitors they would need to be governed by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. The majority of mortgage companies do list licenced conveyancers on their panel and in that case the firms would be governed by the CLC.
We expect to receive a DIP from Aldermore this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Aldermore recommend any Harmondsworth solicitors on the Aldermore conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Harmondsworth solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Aldermore through the process.
I moved into my apartment on 9 September and my personal details are still not registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Harmondsworth advises it would be concluded inside ten days. Are transfers in Harmondsworth particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Harmondsworth is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any third parties. At present approximately three quarters of submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups. Historically registration occurs after the new owner is living at the premises thus 'speed' is not usually top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor should speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the agent has warned us that the seller will only go ahead if we appoint the agent's preferred solicitors as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Harmondsworth
It is highly unlikely the owners are driving this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious buyer is counter productive. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to use your own,trusted Harmondsworth conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will earn the negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing figures pre-set by corporate headquarters.
