Our sealed bid on a semi in Biddenham has been accepted, the owners do however have an associated purchase. The owners have offered on a property, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have selected a high street conveyancing solicitor in Biddenham. What do I do now? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Barclays?
It is understandable to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (home loan application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Biddenham conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you must check that your solicitor is on the Barclays approved list. Concerning the next steps this very much depends on the specifics of your transaction, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market many purchasers would apply for the mortgage with Barclays and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their property lawyer to proceed with searches.
four months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Biddenham took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Biddenham is where the house is located. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in Biddenham are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Biddenham you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Biddenham may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.

Threeweeks into purchasing a property in Biddenham. Conveyancing lawyer has called to say the title is "Leasehold". Will this likely adversely affect our mortgage valuation?
Biddenham conveyancing does not in most situations involve leasehold houses. The main consideration here is the remaining lease term and the ground rent. If it's 999 years with a nominal rent, it's almost the same as freehold, so it’s unlikely to affect the value too much.
At the other extreme, if it's, say, fifty five years it is bound to have a material impact on the value, and probably wouldn't be acceptable to the lender. The remaining lease term and ground rent will be specified in the lease provided to your conveyancer.
