As someone unfamiliar with the Fradley conveyancing process what is the number one tip you can give me for the ownership transfer in Fradley
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Fradley or throughout Staffordshire is an adversarial process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of opportunity for friction between you and others involved in the legal transfer of property. For example, the seller, selling agent and sometimes your mortgage company. Selecting a law firm for your conveyancing in Fradley is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE party in the process whose interest is to look after your legal interests and to keep you safe.
Sometimes a potential adversary will attempt to convince you that you should follow their advice. As an example, the property agent may claim to be helping by claiming that your lawyer is slow. Or your financial adviser may tell you to do take action that is against your lawyers guidance. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the home moving process.
I am buying a new build house in Fradley with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The estate agent told me not disclose to my lawyer about this deal as it will impact 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%.
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.

I am attracted to a couple of apartments in Fradley both have in the region of fifty years left on the leases. Will this present a problem?
A lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the property for a period of time. As a lease gets shorter the marketability of the lease reduces and it becomes more costly to acquire a lease extension. For this reason it is advisable to increase the term of the lease. Sometimes it is difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage companies may be unwilling to lend money on properties of this type. Lease extension can be a protracted process. We advise that you seek professional assistance from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this arena.
I acquired a garden flat in Fradley, conveyancing was carried out in 2003. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Comparable properties in Fradley with over 90 years remaining are worth £179,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 levied per year. The lease finishes on 21st October 2082
With 57 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £26,600 and £30,800 plus professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to provide the actual costs in the absence of detailed investigations.

There are no doubt other concerns that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
