We selected a Barnes based lawyer for our conveyancing in Barnes today. Reviewing the Ts and Cs it is apparent thatI am liable for charges even if the movefalls through. Would I be best advised to select an internet lawyer advertising no completion no cost conveyancing in Barnes?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is advertised then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be more expensive to counteract the cases that do not go ahead. Please beware that these deals rarely cover outlay for example Barnes conveyancing search fees.

I'm purchasing my first flat in Barnes with a loan from The Royal Bank of Scotland. The sellers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The sale representative suggested that I not reveal to my lawyer about this side-deal as it would impact my loan with the lender. Is this normal?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.

After months of dialogue we simply can't agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Barnes. Can we issue an application to the Residential Property Tribunal Service?
Where there is a absentee landlord or where there is disagreement about the premium for a lease extension, under the relevant statutes you can apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal to assess the amount due.
An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement case for a Barnes property is 25 Petley Road in February 2010. The Tribunal determined that the price payable for the freehold of the subject premises should be £18,760. This case related to 2 flats. The unexpired term was 156.6 years and 66.6 years.
What makes a Barnes lease unacceptable for security purposes?
There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in Barnes. All leases are unique and drafting errors can sometimes mean that certain sections are wrong. The following missing provisions could result in a defective lease:
-
A provision to repair to or maintain parts of the building A provision for the recovery of money spent for the benefit of another party.
You may have difficulties when selling your property if you have a defective lease primarily because it impacts on the ability to obtain a mortgage on the property. HSBC Bank, Barnsley Building Society, and Barclays Direct all have express conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. If a mortgage lender believes that the lease is defective they may refuse to provide security, forcing the buyer to pull out.
