Local issues considered by Altrincham Conveyancing Solicitors:

Searches

If your are intending to buy a home in Altrincham a lawyer is required by your lender to apply for Official Local Authority Searches. The Local Authority for Altrincham is Trafford Metropolitan Borough Council, Trafford Town Hall, Talbot Road, Stretford, Manchester, M32 0TH. Tel: 0161 912 2000

Tree Preservation Orders

The existence of any Tree Preservation Order (TPO) is found by a home buyer's Conveyancing Solicitor when making the local search. Anyone proposing to cut down a tree in Altrincham (under the exemption that is dying, dead or dangerous) is advised to give the council five days notice before carrying out the work, except in an emergency. Conditions placed on developers requiring them to plant trees during construction do not necessarily imply a TPO is in place. By obtaining copies of any TPOs impacting your property before you go on the market, you will improve your chances of a faster transaction when you do find a buyer.

Planning Restrictions - Listed Buildings

As part of the local search, a buyer's solicitor in Altrincham will confirm whether a building is listed. Examples of particular construction techniques, including innovative design, may qualify a building to be listed. Copies of all listed building consents will be required during a local search, and if the seller does not have these they will have to be obtained from the local council.

Issues to consider when your lawyer is not on your Lender's panel

Panels of solicitors are maintained by mortgage lenders in order to undertake legal work on mortgaged properties. Recently, lenders have changed the criteria for the firms which they will accept on their panels. They have also reduced the size of their panels, removing firms which do not carry out much Conveyancing work or which they consider to have proved unsatisfactory in the past. These options are available to any homebuyer whose solicitor is not on their lender's panel:

  • Obtain a mortgage from a less restrictive lender
  • Instruct a solicitor whom your lender accepts
  • Pay the lenders costs for their solicitor in addition to your own

It is usually cheaper to have the same firm act both for you and your lender, and carry out all the conveyancing work in connection with a purchase and the mortgage.
