Are you able to suggest a Yorkshire Building Society accepted Arnos Grove conveyancing firm finish our home move within 10 days? Would it be better to use a high street Arnos Grove solicitor or a web based conveyancer?
We can recommend some very good Arnos Grove conveyancing firms. You can also walk up the main road in Arnos Grove. Visit a couple of firms and request to see a conveyancing solicitor for a quote. Explain your time frames together with the reasons and ask for a commitment on speed. Select the lawyer that you trust.
My Conveyancer in Arnos Grove has never been on on the Aldermore Conveyancing Panel. Can I still retain my family solicitor even though they are excluded from the Aldermore approved list?
Your options are as follows:
- Carry on with your preferred Arnos Grove solicitors but Aldermore will need to instruct a solicitor on their list of acceptable firms. This will inevitably rack up the overall conveyancing fees and result in delays.
- Get a new lawyer to act in the purchase, not forgetting to check they are Aldermore approved.
- Try to convince your Aldermore based solicitor to attempt to join the Aldermore panel
How does conveyancing in Arnos Grove differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Arnos Grove approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is completed. This is because builders in Arnos Grove typically buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Arnos Grove or who has acted in the same development.
I decided to have a survey done on a house in Arnos Grove before instructing lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the house. Our surveyor has said that some mortgage companies will refuse to give a loan on a flying freehold house.
It depends who your proposed lender is. Lloyds has different requirements from Halifax. Should you wish to call us we can check with the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Arnos Grove. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Arnos Grove to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.
We're first time buyers - agreed a price, but the selling agent informed us that the seller will only move forward if we use their chosen lawyers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family solicitor used to conveyancing in Arnos Grove
It is highly unlikely the vendors are behind this. Should the seller require ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Try to communicate with the owners directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to appoint your own,trusted Arnos Grove conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing targets demanded by corporate headquarters.
