When can the exchange of contracts take place for sale conveyancing in Peterston Super Ely and do I need to be at the lawyers office?
If you are in close proximity to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Peterston Super Ely you are invited in to sign documents. However, the firms we work with supply a nationwide conveyancing service and provide just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The executing of the contract is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line is just a prerequisite for the firm to exchange contracts when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Peterston Super Ely)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
Can you help - my lawyer says that lack of right of way insurance is required on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Peterston Super Ely conveyancing?
The right level of lack of right of way indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between National Westminster Bank and Bank of Scotland. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.
I'm the only beneficiary of my late mum's will and I have everything in my name now, including the house in Peterston Super Ely. The Peterston Super Ely property was put into my name in October. I now wish to sell up. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the house in October. Do I have to wait half a year to sell?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook requires conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you may be caught by that. How sensible a view lenders take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this provision is principally there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.
I am selling my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in August 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, RBS are being a right pain. The Peterston Super Ely solicitor who is on the RBS conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but RBS are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do RBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that RBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why RBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Peterston Super Ely I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Peterston Super Ely in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
Should you require a mortgage that many years will be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
