We decided to go with a high street lawyer for my conveyancing in Hedge End and Botley yesterday. After carefully reading the Terms it is apparent thatwe are responsible for charges even where the conveyance does not complete. Would I be best advised to select an on-line firm promising no move no charge conveyancing in Hedge End and Botley?
It is usually a trade off in that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the fee levels will generally be uplifted to neutralise those cases that fail to complete. Please beware that these schemes generally do not cover expenses such your Hedge End and Botley conveyancing search costs.
I am acquiring a property without a mortgage in Hedge End and Botley. I have resided for the last 20 years in Hedge End and Botley. Conveyancing searches are a lot of money. As I have knowledge of the area and road intimately must I have all the conveyancing searches?
Provided that you do not need a mortgage, then all but one or two of the Hedge End and Botley conveyancing searches are at your discretion. Your conveyancer will ’encourage you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches done, but he is duty bound to take that path of encouragement . One thing to bear in mind; if you are likely to sell the house one day, it will be of interest to your future buyer what the searches determine. Sometimes premises with no practical issues can still reveal unpredicted search results. A good conveyancing solicitor in Hedge End and Botley should provide you some sensible guidance concerning this.

I happen to be the sole recipient of my late father’s will and I have everything in my name now, including the my former home in Hedge End and Botley. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in December. I plan to dispose of the property. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be considered the same way as if I'd bought the house in December. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be caught by that. many lenders would take a pragmatic view as this provision is chiefly there to identify subsales or the quick reselling of properties.
I had an offer accepted on an apartment in Hedge End and Botley on 8/12/2025, valuation was booked 4 days after, all came back fine. Property lawyer instructed, so the only thing outstanding was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to RBS and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the RBS conveyancing panel. Are RBS entitled to hold back the Mortgage pending the lawyer being on the approved list?
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for RBS to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the RBS conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
I have been on the look out for a flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Hedge End and Botley I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Hedge End and Botley for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
