Your Go-To Mortgage Solicitors Wimbledon

While the purchasers’ solicitors are waiting for draft contracts and the other documents relating to the title of the property for sale, the purchasers will normally be making their final arrangements with their lender.

Once the mortgage company has made a decision that it is happy to lend, it will send out a formal mortgage offer will usually send to the purchasers’ solicitor a copy of the offer as well because they will want them to be aware of any special conditions on the offer and to make them know to the purchasers.

Mortgage companies will usually want a purchaser’s solicitors to act on their behalf as well as for the purchaser. This means that the solicitors have a duty to follow both the lender’s and purchaser’s instructions and to make sure that the property does offer good security for the loan. Solicitors acting for the lender, as well as the purchaser, follow strict guidelines published by the Council of Mortgage Lenders.
