We are aiming to move house in March. Should my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you put forward a removal company in Whitton. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across this website.
On the day of completion you can collect the house keys from the selling agent but this should only occur once the vendors solicitors inform the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be given over. After that you can advise the removal men that you are ready to move in. We are not in a position to suggest a particular removal organisation but can help you find a conveyancing in Whitton or a firm with expertise in conveyancing in Whitton.
I am buying a property in Whitton. An unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. UBS have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
Given that your lender is UBS your lawyer must comply with the conveyancing requirements contained in Part two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for UBS. The CML Handbook includes minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and property lawyers are required to report to UBS where a lease does not meet these provisions. The specifications relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not restricted to Whitton.
After what feels like an age I have had an offer on a flat in Whitton agreed to, the sellers do nevertheless have a dependent purchase. The vendors have put an offer on a flat, however it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have chosen a high street conveyancing solicitor in Whitton. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Nationwide going?
It is usual to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is approx £1k, then valuation, Whitton conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to check that your conveyancer is on the Nationwide approved list. Concerning the next phase this very much dictated by the specifics of your transaction, desire for this property and on the state of the market. During a hot market the majority of home buyers will apply for the mortgage with Nationwide and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their solicitor to press on with the conveyancing in Whitton.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and found one close by in Whitton I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, however it's only got 49 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Whitton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan that many years may be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
We're first time buyers - agreed a price, yet the selling agent has warned us that the owners will only proceed if we instruct the agent's chosen lawyers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family solicitor with experience of conveyancing in Whitton
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this ultimatum. If they want ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious buyer is not the way to achieve this. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you are going to use your preferred Whitton conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or meet his conveyancing targets set by HQ.
