I have been referred to a conveyancing solicitor in Swiss Cottage. I need to find out if they are accepted on the Yorkshire Building Society approved list of lawyers. Can you assist?
The first thing to do is phone your solicitor and ask them whether they can act for the lender. Otherwise you should get in touch with Yorkshire Building Society who may be able to help.
My wife and I are selling our home in Swiss Cottage and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. Any high street Swiss Cottage lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a web based conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Swiss Cottage. We have lived in Swiss Cottage for 5 years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that the buyers are looking for.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. What do they say? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same ailment)
Have completed on a a detached house in Swiss Cottage , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my title? My Swiss Cottage conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain the post completion formalities are concluded.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Swiss Cottage registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can vary depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any interested persons or bodies. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Registration takes place once the new owner has moved in to the property so 'speed' is not usually an essential issue but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
