This question may be naive but I am unseasoned as a first time buyer of a two bedroom flat in Drybrook. Do I collect the keys to the premises on the completion date from my solicitor? If this is the case, I will use a local conveyancing solicitor in Drybrook?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will transfer the purchase money to the vendor’s conveyancers, and once they have received this, you should be able to collect the keys from the selling Agents and start moving into the property. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.
My wife and I purchasing a terrace house in Drybrook. Our aim is to carry out an extension to the side at the property.Will the conveyancing process include enquiries to see if these alterations were previously refused?
Your property lawyer should review the deeds as conveyancing in Drybrook will on occasion identify restrictions in the title documents which prohibit certain alterations or need the permission of a 3rd party. Certain additions need local authority planning consent and approval in accordance building regulations. Certain locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. You should check these issues with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.
I have paid off my mortgage with Nottingham. I assume I don't need a Drybrook conveyancer on the Nottingham panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Nottingham mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Nottingham mortgage from the register. Nottingham, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Nottingham has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Nottingham has instructed the Land Registry to do so
I am buying my first flat in Drybrook benefiting from help to buy. The developers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent advised me not inform my lawyer about the side-deal as it would jeopardize my loan with Lloyds TSB Bank. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
How does the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my commercial premises in Drybrook and how can your lawyers assist?
The particular law that you refer to provides a safeguard to business tenants, granting the right to make a request to court for a new lease and remain in occupation at the end of the lease term. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complicated. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing solicitors who use the act for protection and handle your commercial conveyancing in Drybrook
I am intending to sublet my leasehold apartment in Drybrook. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask her. Is permission from the freeholder required?
Even though your previous Drybrook conveyancing solicitor is no longer available you can review your lease to see if you are permitted to let out the property. The accepted inference is that if the lease is silent, subletting is permitted. There may be a precondition that you need to obtain consent from your landlord or other appropriate person prior to subletting. The net result is that you cannot sublet in the absence of first obtaining consent. The consent must not not be unreasonably withheld. If the lease prohibits you from letting out the property you should ask your landlord if they are willing to waive this restriction.
