If you intend to re-mortgage then Barclays will insist on your using a conveyancer on the Barclays conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate.

Both professionals handle the legal services that you need to complete the disposal or purchase of property.

When it comes to conveyancing in Peckham obtaining recommendations is a good starting point. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one which is cheap as chips. We would always advocate that you speak with the lawyer conducting your conveyancing.

After what seems like an age I have had an offer on an apartment in Peckham accepted, but there is a chain. The sellers have put an offer on on an apartment, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other flats booked. I have instructed a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Peckham. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with UBS started?

It is understandable to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is in the region of £1k, then survey, Peckham conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you should check that your property lawyer is on the UBS approved list. Regarding the subsequent stages this very much depends on the uniqueness of your transaction, desire for the property and on the state of the market. In a hot market the majority of purchasers will apply for a home loan with UBS and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they ask their conveyancing practitioner to press on with the conveyancing in Peckham.

Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Peckham before instructing solicitors. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. My surveyor advised that some banks tend not issue a mortgage on this type of home.

My solicitor (who is 200 kilometers from mehas requested that I sign a stat dec before completion. Could you suggest a conveyancing practitioner in Peckham to witness and place their company stamp on the document?
