Having been suggested to visit your organisation we were about to appoint conveyancing solicitor in Fowey listed on your site but have come across alternative fee calculations on the internet appear cheaper – how come?
You can find hundreds of solicitors advertising what appear to be cut price. We would urge you to think long and hard as to how much you respect your own move to want to take 'cheap' risks with regard to the standard of the conveyancing. Many of them list a bargain fee to tease you but hide extra charges in the small print..
We are acquiring our first home. Our lawyer has contact usto enquire if we want to order additional conveyancing searches. We are really unsure what's necessary for conveyancing in Fowey
The scope of Fowey conveyancing searches depends primarily on the premises, the location, the possibility of any of these risks, your knowledge of the area and risks, your overall attitude to risk. What is important is that you properly understand what information the searches could supply. You may then make a decision if you personally think you need that information. If unclear, ask the lawyer to explain.
How does conveyancing in Fowey differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Fowey approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Fowey usually acquire 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 property lawyers 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 Fowey or who has acted in the same development.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Fowey is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Fowey are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Fowey you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Fowey may decide 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.
