Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Brondesbury. Is there a reason why all Brondesbury lawyers aren't included on all mortgage company panels?
Mortgage companies point to the fact that solicitor-led fraud is thought to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud every year.The dismissal of law firms from lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the Financial Services Authority in 2011. Its conclusions included recommendations for mortgage companies to review their conveyancing panels, which triggered a major policy change in the sector. It led to mortgage companies purging less reputable firms from their panel of approved property lawyers .
four months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Brondesbury took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. 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 premises 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.
How does conveyancing in Brondesbury differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Brondesbury come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because house builders in Brondesbury typically acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Brondesbury or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one close by in Brondesbury I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Brondesbury for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
