How does conveyancing in Pangbourne differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Pangbourne come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because builders in Pangbourne typically buy the real estate, 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Pangbourne or who has acted in the same development.

My wife and I are acquiring a first floor flat in Pangbourne. When we first instructed property lawyer, they said that they were on all mainstream lender panels. The mortgage broker emailed yesterday to say that they don't appear to be on the Nottingham approved list. If it turns out to be true, what should we do? Do we just choose a new conveyancer that is on their approved list or should we cover the costs for separate representation, with Nottingham appointing their own approved conveyancing practitioner.
Where you are purchasing a property needing a mortgage it is normal for the purchaser’s solicitors to also represent the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a conveyancer has to be on that lender's list of approved lawyers. An application has to be made by the solicitor to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict conditions which the property lawyer has to satisfy. Some lenders now insist their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your lawyer should call Nottingham and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own solicitors to act. You don't have to instruct a firm on Nottingham's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Pangbourne solicitors, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it will likely delay the transaction as you are adding another lawyer into the equation.
