Want to get into that new property as soon as possible? Wanting your sale to Complete yesterday?

It is often difficult for your property solicitors to pinpoint a specific date for Completion within your transaction, unless the matter is well progressed and your property solicitors have been able to agree a date with the vendor’s or buyer’s legal team.

When selling a property in the local area, MG Legal will advise that the usual time limits are set at approximately 4-6 weeks to Complete.

You probably already know this.

When your loved one passes away, quite often you will need to obtain a Grant of Probate, commonly just known as Probate.

This process normally involves making an application to the Probate Registry Office, including details of the deceased’s financial position and their Will. If their Will is not available (or in some cases, if they did not have one), you would need to apply for Letters of Administration.

“Quic quid plantatur solo solo credit.” Nope the Conveyancing Solicitors Preston have not finally lost the plot; that is Latin for (roughly) “Whoever owns the land at the bottom of the lake owns everything up to the sky”.
