My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Frinton On Sea. I I would like to check if they are on the Platform Home Loans Ltd conveyancing panel. Can you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?
The first thing you should do is contact your lawyer and ask them if they can act for the bank. Otherwise please call Platform Home Loans Ltd who may be able to help.
I have been told that property searches are a common reason for hinderance in Frinton On Sea conveyancing transactions. Is this right?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published determinations of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the most frequent causes of delays during the legal transfer of property. Local searches are unlikely to feature in any holding up conveyancing in Frinton On Sea.
I'm buying a new build house in Frinton On Sea benefiting from help to buy. The developers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The sale representative suggested that I not to tell my conveyancer about the extras as it would adversely affect my mortgage with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
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.
