What Does My Solicitor Do?
Your solicitor plays an important role in supporting you through the legal aspects of purchasing your home.
If you are purchasing through Shared Ownership or another affordable home ownership scheme, you will usually be entering into a lease agreement with a housing association or developer. Your solicitor will review the terms of the lease and the legal title of the property and advise you on any matters that may affect your use or enjoyment of your home.
Your solicitor will also act on behalf of your mortgage lender by confirming that the property provides suitable security for the mortgage.
You are free to choose any suitably qualified solicitor or licensed conveyancer to represent you during your purchase.
If you would like, Censeo can provide details of conveyancing firms who are experienced in affordable home ownership transactions. You are under no obligation to use any firm introduced by us.
Any legal advice you receive will be provided by your chosen solicitor. Neither Censeo Financial nor PRIMIS Mortgage Network are responsible for the advice or services provided by third parties.
Conveyancing is not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.
