I was notified recently by my mortgage adviser that my Shirenewton property lawyer is not on the lender Solicitor panel. How can I be sure if this is correct?
The first thing you need to do is to call your Shirenewton lawyer directly. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to inform you what has happened. Where they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the approved list of lawyers for your lender.
We have rather pushy vendors who has insisted on a exclusivity agreement with a non-refundable deposit two thousand pounds. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?
There are a couple of main concerns with signing a lock out contract (also known as an exclusivity agreement) is that it diverts attention away from making progress with the conveyancing transaction itself, so in the absence of it needing little or no negotiation then it may turn out to be unhelpful. It is not particularly popular by Shirenewton conveyancing lawyers for this reason. A further negative is the extent of the remedies available - an aggrieved buyer is very unlikely to be granted an injunction to bar the owner completing the sale to another buyer, so the only remedy available under the agreement will be the recovery of wasted charges and, in restricted situations, the extra payment of damages.
Is there a search tool that I can use to find out if the solicitor handling my conveyancing in Shirenewton is on the mortgage lender’sconveyancing panel? I am looking to avoid the situation of having one lawyer for me and one for The Mortgage Works thus paying £187.00 plus VAT in further legal fees.
Feel free to make the most of the search tool on this site. Please choose the mortgage company and type ‘Shirenewton’ or your preferred area and you will be presented with a number of lawyer offices in Shirenewton or near you.
How does conveyancing in Shirenewton differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Shirenewton come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because builders in Shirenewton typically buy the site, 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 used to new build conveyancing in Shirenewton or who has acted in the same development.
