As someone clueless as to the Woolavington conveyancing process what’s your top tip you can give me concerning the ownership transfer in Woolavington

Not many law firms or advisers will tell you this but conveyancing in Woolavington or throughout England and Wales is an adversarial process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists an abundance of opportunity for conflict between you and others involved in the legal transfer of property. For example, the vendor, estate agent and even potentially a bank. Choosing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Woolavington is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE person in the transaction whose responsibility is to act in your best interests and to keep you safe.

Every so often a potential adversary will attempt to sway you that it is in your interests to do things their way. As an example, the selling agent may claim to be helping by claiming that your solicitor is slow. Or your financial adviser may advise you to do something that is against your lawyers guidance. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.

My fiance and I intend to purchase a newly converted apartment in Woolavington with a homeloan from Leeds Building Society.We have a Woolavington conveyancing practitioner but Leeds Building Society informed us her practice is not on their approved list of firms. It seems we are left with no choice but to instruct a Leeds Building Society panel firm or keep our high street solicitor and fork out for a Leeds Building Society panel lawyer to represent them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that Leeds Building Society use our lawyer?

No, not really. The loan issued to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that conveyancers needs to be on the Leeds Building Society approved list. Until recently, most banks had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Leeds Building Society

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Woolavington is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Woolavington are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Woolavington you must be sure that your lawyer goes 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 Woolavington 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.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the selling agent told us that the vendor will only issue a contract if we appoint the agent's recommended conveyancers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street conveyancer who is accustomed to conveyancing in Woolavington

We suspect that the seller is unaware of this demand. If they require ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious purchaser is counter productive. Try to communicate with the owners directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you are going to appoint your own,trusted Woolavington conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will give the negotiator at the agency a referral fee or achieve conveyancing thresholds pre-set by corporate headquarters.
