When it comes to mortgage companies such as Bank of Ireland, do Carisbrooke conveyancers have to pay an annual charge to be on the conveyancing panel?

I can not work out if my bank obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have called my Carisbrooke bank branch on numerous occasions and was advised it wasn't an issue and they will lend. My Carisbrooke conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called and was told they would not lend in accordance with their published requirements. I simply don't know who is right.

The conveyancer must comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook section two conditions for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the mortgage company will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

My wife and I are selling our property in Carisbrooke and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. A high street Carisbrooke lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers used an online conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Carisbrooke. Having lived in Carisbrooke for 5 years we know that this is a non issue. Do we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that the buyers are looking for.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. What do they say? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)

Have completed on a a detached house in Carisbrooke , how long should it take for the Land Registry to record my title? My Carisbrooke conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to check the land registry aspects are concluded.

As far as conveyancing in Carisbrooke registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd parties. At present in the region of three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Historically registration is effected once the purchaser is living at the premises therefore 'speed' is not always top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

I am purchasing a new build house in Carisbrooke benefiting from help to buy. The developers would not reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The house builders rep advised me not disclose to my solicitor about this side-deal as it could adversely affect my loan with the 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%.
