Moseley, within the city of Birmingham, is regularly voted one of the top places to live in the United Kingdom. With its eclectic mix of houses and closeness to the city centre, it is easy to understand why Moseley is a popular place to live. With our Conveyancing Solicitors in Moseley, we can help make your move as stress free as possible for you.
WHY IS MOSELEY ONE OF THE TOP SUBURBS TO LIVE IN BIRMINGHAM?
Formerly part of the county of Worcestershire, Moseley is now a suburb within central Birmingham. It lies 3 miles south of city centre, making Moseley a perfect commuter area especially for those with young families looking for a quieter life outside of the city centre.
First recorded in the Domesday book as Museleie, the area was extensively farmed until the early 1900’s when it was developed to introduce large houses popular with Edwardian Middle Class families. Today, many of these formerly large properties have been split into flats, and Moseley is now a popular location known for its residential options, village community spirit and cosmopolitan offerings. The centre of Moseley has a number of bars, restaurants, high street shops and independent boutiques. Commonly noted features that attract people to Moseley are the arts, beautiful Victorian architecture and a Bohemian vibe.
Moseley is also a popular place to visit with several annual events run throughout the year. There is a monthly award winning farmers market, a summer festival showcasing arts and culture. There are also annual Folk and Literary festivals.
High profile residents include J.R.R Tolkein, Neville Chamberlain, Kabir Ali and several famous musicians. Current residents have created the Moseley Society which focuses its efforts on the preservation of the area and more practical things such as litter picking. A popular local attraction is Moseley Bog which consists of both wet and dry woodland and forms part of the larger Shire Country Park. Local legend suggests that some of J. R. R. Tolkein’s inspiration for his stories came from this area.
HOW DO I PICK THE RIGHT CONVEYANCER FOR MY PROPERTY?
If you ask most people, they would all agree that buying a house is one of the most tense times in a person’s life. There will be an amount of disruption and the process can take quite a bit of managing as there can be many individuals involved. You will need to communicate with the buyer and/or seller, estate agent or several if it is part of a chain, mortgage advisor, banks and building societies, conveyancing solicitors and also more practical aspects such as removal firms, service providers and the council. Choosing the right conveyancer at the start of the process can help make much of this easier.
It is essential that your conveyancing solicitor has experience of the specific elements of your transaction. Although the conveyancing follows a broadly similar process regardless of the type of property you are dealing with, each property type requires specific expertise. Examples including differences between leasehold, freehold and new build property. Different finance options require expert handling and so you should discuss the experience of your conveyancing solicitor to make sure they have the necessary expertise to handle your transaction well. It is important also to be comfortable with the team you are trusting with your property transaction from the very beginning. At Express Conveyancing, we ensure we speak with all clients at the start either via telephone or email, to make sure we fully understand the specific details of any transaction.
