I plan on purchasing a leasehold flat in Marazion. My Conveyancer is not listed on the lender approved list. Is it possible for me to appoint my Marazion conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the mortgage company panel of approved conveyancing solicitors?
You must have a conveyancer to deal with the legal work required when you require a loan to purchase your home. They will conduct all the relevant investigations on the property, make sure that you will be properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the necessary mortgage documentation is in place. One may appoint a Marazion conveyancing practitioner of your choosing. However, where the solicitor selected is not a member of the bank approved list supplemental fees will be incurred as separate legal representation will be required by them. Conveyancing panel applications may be submitted, so if your conveyancer has not in the past sought membership they should do so.
My husband and I are nearing an exchange on a house in Marazion and my parents have sent the ten percent deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now advised that as the deposit has not arrived from me my conveyancing practitioner needs to make a notification to my lender. Apparently, in also acting for the bank he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I informed the lender regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for this now to hold matters up?
Your conveyancing practitioner is duty bound to clarify with lender to ensure that they are aware that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. The solicitor can only reveal this to your lender if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
I got the keys to my home on 1 October and the transaction details is yet to be on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Marazion said it will be recorded in a couple of weeks. Are transfers in Marazion particularly slow to register?
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Marazion registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. At present roughly three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups. Registration takes place once the purchaser has moved in to the premises so 'speed' is not typically an essential issue but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Marazion is the location of the property. Can you offer any advice?
Flying freeholds in Marazion are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Marazion you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Marazion may determine 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 property.
