I have instructed a Frognal lawyer having made sure that they are on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?

Bank of Ireland will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Bank of Ireland will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Frognal surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

4 months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Frognal concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £180,000. 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.

Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Frognal ahead of instructing conveyancers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. My surveyor has said that some mortgage companies tend refuse to issue a loan on this type of house.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Frognal. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.

We have been advised by numerous friends that it should take 6-8 weeks for Frognal conveyancing to complete.This was a month ago. The draft contract was only forwarded to my property lawyer last week so now does it countdown?
