What will my Wombourne solicitor do?

A conveyancing solicitor leads you through the legal side of transferring ownership from the seller to the buyer. This means carrying out comprehensive due diligence on the property, like obtaining searches from relevant authorities, such as South Staffordshire Council, raising questions about how the seller has used the property, ensuring necessary funds are correctly transferred and registering your ownership of the property at HMLR.

Further to the standard checks and searches, Wombourne conveyancing solicitors would also undertake coal mining searches, due to the area's mining history.

Are you funding your home purchase with a mortgage?

Selling property in Wombourne

When you begin the process to sell a Wombourne property, your lawyer will first compile key documents, including title deeds and the various property information forms, and help you fill out this paperwork.

The lawyer will address potential issues and handle questions from the buyer's side.

To ensure the transaction is straightforward, your conveyancer will communicate effectively with the other parties, such as agents, lenders and landlords.

Does it take longer to sell a leasehold property?

Correct, it can take much more time to complete the legal work on a leasehold house or flat, compared to the sale of a freehold property.

The solicitor acting for the buyer must review several leasehold-related documents, such as a current statement of service charges. The time needed by the seller's conveyancer to gather this paperwork is usually the cause of these delays.

Your lawyer should start this process even before a sale has been agreed, as this paperwork could take several weeks to collect if it is difficult to contact the landlord or managing agent.

How much are solicitors' conveyancing fees in Wombourne?

Conveyancing fees

The conveyancing quote should clearly detail the legal fees, including VAT, that you pay when the property transaction is complete. These legal fees are paid to your lawyer for the legal work that they complete on your behalf.

Disbursements

Your quote should also list any disbursements, which are costs paid to third parties on your behalf, such as Local authority searches, Stamp Duty or a managing agent information pack.

Check what's included in your quote

Some solicitors' quotes may include additional charges in their terms and conditions. This can lead to a higher-than-expected final bill. If you are comparing quotes, watch out for undisclosed fees missing from the original quote.
