I am looking to buy a flat and require a conveyancing solicitor in Beckton who is on the TSB approved. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a solicitor?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for TSB in certain locations such as Beckton. We dont recommend any particular firm.
We are buying a flat in Beckton. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a solicitor? At some point we will need to put money into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our money?
Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.
We are aiming to move property in February. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you put forward a removal company in Beckton. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen prior to coming across your website.
On the day of completion you will need to collect the keys from your selling agent but this should only occur once the vendors conveyancers inform the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be passed over. Subsequently you will need to advise the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal company but can assist you in finding a residential property solicitor in Beckton or a solicitor that specialises in conveyancing in Beckton.
Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with UBS. Beckton conveyancing solicitors have been selected. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from UBS?
There is no definitive answer here. Have UBS conducted the survey? Have you advised UBS as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the UBS conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
2 months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Beckton completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Beckton is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can give?
Flying freeholds in Beckton are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Beckton you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Beckton may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
