Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Tower Hill

My wife and I are planning to acquire a home in Tower Hill and are in fact using a Tower Hill conveyancing firm. Within the last couple of days our solicitor has sent a preliminary report and documents to look through with the expectation that exchange is imminent. Norwich and Peterborough Building Society have this afternoon contacted us to inform me that they have now hit a problem as our Tower Hill lawyer is not on their conveyancing panel. What do we do from here?

When purchasing a property with the benefit of a mortgage it is normal for the purchasers' solicitors to also represent the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a law firm has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the law firm to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the firm has to satisfy and indeed some lenders now require their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your property lawyer should contact your lender and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You don't have to instruct a firm on the bank's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Tower Hill solicitors, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it may delay matters as you have another set of people involved.

Is there a search tool that I can use to investigate if the solicitor handling my conveyancing in Tower Hill is on the lender’sconveyancing panel? I am looking to avoid the situation of having one lawyer for me and one for Norwich and Peterborough Building Society thus spending £192.00 in supplemental conveyancing charges.

You should take advantage of the find a lender approved solicitor tool on this web page. Pick the lender and type ‘Tower Hill’ or your location and you will see numerous conveyancers based in Tower Hill or by proximity to you.

I have todaybeen informed that Action Conveyancing have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Tower Hill for a purchase of a freehold house 18 months ago. How can I establish that the property is registered correctly in the name of the former proprietor?

The easiest way to check if the premises is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Tower Hill conveyancing specialists.

I'm purchasing my first flat in Tower Hill with a loan from Nottingham Building Society. The sellers would not budge the price so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent advised me not inform my solicitor about this deal as it may affect my mortgage with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one near me in Tower Hill I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Tower Hill suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.

I need to retain a conveyancing solicitor for some conveyancing in Tower Hill. I've stumble upon a site which looks to be the ideal solution If there is a chance to get all the legals done via phone that would be ideal. Do I need to be concerned? What are the potential pitfalls?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
