What do Radcliffe conveyancing solicitors do?

For a property purchase, the solicitor will handle the legal aspects of transferring ownership from the seller to the buyer.

Your solicitor will order searches, raise enquires of the seller's solicitor, review the contract of sale and complete any post-sale actions, such as registering the property ownership with the Land Registry and paying SDLT.

In addition to standard searches, Radcliffe conveyancing solicitors may also undertake searches for historic industrial activity and land contamination.

Are you purchasing a home with a mortgage?

If you are planning to buy with a mortgage, your solicitor will verify that the property is worth the loan that the bank or building society that's giving you the mortgage will provide.

If your lawyer isn't accepted on your mortgage provider's panel, it may take weeks longer to purchase your property.

More than 100 banks and specialist lenders have approved our chosen partner solicitors. We can help you complete your Radcliffe transaction without delay.

Is there anything to be aware of if selling a leasehold property in Radcliffe?

The legal work for a leasehold flat is quite a lot more complicated compared to a freehold house.

Leasehold complexity involves additional work on the part of conveyancing solicitors in Radcliffe, for example collating the latest service charge and ground rent statement, through to a copy of the service charge budget for the current year (and any anticipated payments on account).

So as to resolve any leasehold-related problems sooner, It is recommended that the seller instruct a conveyancer as soon as possible, and potentially before going on the market,.

What are typical Radcliffe conveyancing fees?

Legal fees

Your solicitor's quote should clearly detail the legal fees, including VAT, to be paid when the conveyancing transaction completes. These fees are what your conveyancer charges you for the legal work that they complete during your property transaction.

Disbursements

The conveyancing quote should also include any disbursements, which are third-party costs, such as Stamp Duty, property searches and a pre-completion search.

Check for hidden costs

Some solicitors' quotes include extra costs in their terms and conditions. This can mean a total cost that's much higher than the initial quote. Watch out for additional charges, when comparing quotes.
