The housing market in Common Edge is heating up. What can I do to quicken up the buying process?
Where you are under pressure to exchange it is advisable to make sure that your solicitor is familiar with the location as they will benefit local contacts and know-how. It is even conceivable that they could have transacted otherhouses in the same street. Therefore consider using a Common Edge conveyancing lawyer. In addition, double check that the lawyer is on the on the approved list for your mortgage company. It is estimated that nearly one in five of Common Edge conveyancing deals are suspended or derailed after discovering a buyer’s lawyer was not on their mortgage lender’s list of approved solicitors. This can often result in the home move being frustrated by as much as 21 days. It is believed that this issue affects approximately one hundred thousand home sales every year. Many Common Edge conveyancing firms can not act for certain banks so do check at the outset.
As someone clueless as to the Common Edge conveyancing process what is the number one tip you can give me for the ownership transfer in Common Edge
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Common Edge or throughout England and Wales is an adversarial process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there is an abundance of room for friction between you and other parties involved in the legal transfer of property. For instance, the seller, selling agent and sometimes your bank. Appointing a lawyer for your conveyancing in Common Edge should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE person in the transaction whose responsibility is to act in your best interests and to protect you.
Sometimes a potential adversary may attempt to convince you that it is in your interests to do things their way. For instance, the selling agent may claim to be assisting by suggesting your solicitor is dragging his heels. Or your financial adviser may try to convince you to do something that is against your lawyers guidance. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the conveyancing process.
It has been five months since my purchase conveyancing in Common Edge took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £160,000. 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 asset 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 am buying a new build house in Common Edge benefiting from help to buy. The sellers would not move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The estate agent advised me not to tell my lawyer about the side-deal as it may impact my mortgage with Bank of Scotland. 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.

Fiveweeks into a sale of a flat in Common Edge. Conveyancing is fine but we are being charged a fortune by the landlord. So far we have forked out £225 for a leasehold management information and then another £134.40 for responses to questions supplied by the buyers conveyancer.
Neither you or your conveyancer will have any impact over the extent of the bill for this information however the typical fee for the information for Common Edge leasehold property is £380. For Common Edge conveyancing transactions it is usual for the owner to cover the charges. The freeholder or their agents are not duty bound to answer such questions although many will be content to do so - albeit often at high prices disproportionate to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no legislation that mandates set charges for administrative tasks. There is no prescriptive time frame by which they are duty bound to issue answers.
