Conveyancing Insurance

Conveyancing Firms have Indemnity insurance for conveyancing processes to cover any kind of legal issues with the house that can’t be resolved quickly, or can’t be fixed at all. Legal indemnity insurance protects the buyer and the mortgage lender in case of any decrease in value on the property as a result of any kind of defect or problems. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ (CML) handbook for conveyancers says: “You must effect an indemnity insurance policy whenever the Lenders’ Handbook identifies that this is an acceptable or required course to us to ensure that the property has a good and marketable title at completion.”

Payments when purchasing a home

Your chosen conveyancer will guide you through the legal stage of purchasing – agreeing on the sale contract and exchanging for the property purchase. You’ll usually have to put down a deposit, normally about 10% of the final price.

Purchasing comes with a number of extra fees to pay, that includes mortgage lender costs, before the sale is finalised. The biggest cost is the stamp duty land tax – a UK Government tax on land transfers.

Other fees include Land Reg costs and local authority search fees, and a number other costs that are included as disbursements within the conveyancers quote. Your conveyancing solicitor calculate all these fees and let you know the overall price for buying.
