The mortgage offer from HSBC for the remortgage of my 3 bedroom flat is coming by the end of next week. Are you able to suggest a cheap conveyancing lawyer in Catford?
This site is not designed to assist those in pursuit of cut-price fees for conveyancing in Catford. We can offer you value for money conveyancing but we do not work with the cheapest lawyers. Do not be fooled by organisations offering the bait of low cost conveyancing in Catford. In your best case scenario, in choosing a lawyer for cheap conveyancing, you will get your money’s worth and at worst it will result in you invoiced for additional fees and still not get the service you were hoping for.
We decided to purchase a 3 bedroom flat in Catford with a homeloan from TSB.We have a Catford conveyancing practitioner but TSB informed us he's not on their "panel". We have to appoint a TSB panel lawyer or keep our high street solicitor and fork out for a TSB panel lawyer to act for them. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that TSB use our lawyer?
No, not really. The home loan offered to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that lawyers will be on the TSB approved list. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could choose 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. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for TSB
I am aiming to move property in December. Does my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you put forward a removal company in Catford. Conveyancing lawyer was organised prior to coming across your website.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the keys from the property agent but this can only take place once the sellers lawyers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be collected. After that you will need to advise the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal company but can help you choose a residential property solicitor in Catford or a firm with expertise in conveyancing in Catford.
We are getting a further advance on our home loan from UBS as we wish to carry out a loft conversion to our house in Catford. Are we obliged to appoint a high street Catford solicitor on the UBS conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?
UBS would not normally appoint a member of their approved list of lawyers to deal with the formalities. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the UBS list.
About to purchase maisonette in Catford. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Catford solicitor is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.

What are the compelling advantages to using a local lawyer in Catford
Home movers in Catford opt for a local lawyer so that they can attend the lawyer’s offices in the event that they have questions, and to collect mortgage deeds without using the post.
Some would allege that there is a distinct benefit in using a conveyancer local to a property you are purchasing, due to the knowledge of the region and possible local issues - but this is debatable. Many conveyancers carry out their work online and could be anywhere in the world.
