My fiance and I are buying a newbuild flat in Batheaston with a mortgage from Leeds Building Society.We have a Batheaston conveyancing solicitor but Leeds Building Society advised that he's not listed on their approved list of firms. we are left little option but to use a Leeds Building Society panel firm or retain our high street solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The mortgage issued to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that conveyancers must be on the Leeds Building Society approved list. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Leeds Building Society

Now that you have legally bound yourself to purchase you will need to hire the services of a conveyancing solicitor as a matter of priority as you now have a tight a drop dead date to complete the transaction.

I have todayfound out that Arc property Solicitors have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Batheaston for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 10 months ago. How can I establish that my home is in my name in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest way to see if the property 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 Batheaston conveyancing specialists.
How does conveyancing in Batheaston differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Batheaston come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because new home sellers in Batheaston typically purchase 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 property lawyers 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 Batheaston or who has acted in the same development.
