We would encourage you not to go for the cheapest Nether Edge conveyancing fees. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need.

I have been advised by my conveyancer that missing deeds insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Nether Edge?

The right level of missing deeds indemnity insurance should be dictated by who your lender. It would differ for example between Yorkshire Building Society and Leeds Building Society. Conveyancing solicitors as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.

We had chosen conveyancers with offices in Nether Edge on the Barclays solicitor panel. They have just billed me an additional charge for handling the Barclays mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Barclays?

Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your conveyancer may levy a fee for this. This fee is not dictated by Barclays but by your Nether Edge property lawyer. Plenty of firms on the Barclays panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee but many firms incorporate it on their overall fee.

A friend suggested that where I am purchasing in Nether Edge I should ask my conveyancer to execute a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?

A search of this type is sometimes quoted for as part of the standard Nether Edge conveyancing searches. It is a large document of about 40 pages, listing and detailing important information about Nether Edge around the property and the people living there. It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the Nether Edge Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the demographics of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average Property Price, Crime details, Local Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information regarding Nether Edge.

The deeds to my property can not be found. The lawyers who handled the conveyancing in Nether Edge 10 years ago are no longer around. What are my options?

These day there are copies made of almost everything, and your lawyer should know exactly where to find all the relevant paperwork so you may purchase or sell your house without any difficulty. If copies are not available, your lawyer may be able to arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities against future claims on your property.

I opted to have a survey carried out on a house in Nether Edge before instructing lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. Our surveyor has said that some banks tend refuse to grant a mortgage on such a home.

It depends who your proposed lender is. HSBC has different requirements from Nationwide. If you e-mail us we can look into this further with the appropriate bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Nether Edge.
