We are purchasing a detached bungalow in Croydon. We would like to carry out a loft conversion at the house.Will legal conveyancing on the property involve investigations to ascertain if these works are allowed?
Your property lawyer will review the registered title as conveyancing in Croydon can on occasion identify restrictions in the title deeds which restrict categories of changes or necessitated the consent of a 3rd party. Many extensions need local authority planning permissions and approval under the building regulations. Many areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or impact extensions. You should check these things with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.
I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Bank of Ireland are being pedantic. The Croydon solicitor who is on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Bank of Ireland are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Bank of Ireland have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Bank of Ireland have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Bank of Ireland may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
My sealed bid on a house in Croydon has been agreed to, the sellers do nevertheless have an associated purchase. The vendors have offered on a property, however it’s not yet tied up, and have viewings of other flats booked. I have chosen a high street conveyancing solicitor in Croydon. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with TSB started?
It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (mortgage application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Croydon conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you should check that your conveyancer is on the TSB approved list. Regarding the subsequent stages this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. During a hot market the majority of home buyers would apply for the mortgage with TSB and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their lawyer to press on with searches.
