I am looking for value for money property lawyer. Should I go for for a national conveyancer or a local Hall Green conveyancing lawyer?
Established third party relationships is an important consideration when appointing conveyancing lawyers. Hall Green law firms benefit from connections with mortgage brokers and Hall Green, local authorities, surveyors and other law firms meaning the whole process is going to be much more straightforward for you. Hosting a well rounded insight into the local area is an advantage.
I moved into my home on 7 November and the transaction details is not yet registered. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Hall Green advises it will be concluded inside ten days. Are transfers in Hall Green particularly slow to register?
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Hall Green registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any interested parties. 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. Historically registration is effected after the purchaser is living at the property so 'speed' is not usually an essential issue yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I'm remortgaging my current home to a BTL mortgage with and intend to use the remaining equity towards a second property. The location we are talking about is Hall Green. Will your lawyers be able to act for both sets of mortgage companies and link together the transactions?
