I am planning to move home in December. Should my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you put forward a removal company in Grange Over Sands. Conveyancing firm was organised prior to coming across your site.
On the day of completion you can pick up the keys from your property agent but this should only be done after the sellers lawyers advise the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be released. You should advise the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a specific removal company but can assist you in choosing a residential property solicitor in Grange Over Sands or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Grange Over Sands.
Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Lloyds. Grange Over Sands conveyancing practitioners were appointed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Lloyds?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Lloyds conducted the survey? Have you advised Lloyds as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Lloyds conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.
I recently had an offer accepted on an apartment in Grange Over Sands. My mortgage broker pressured me to appoint their property lawyer. I paid an advanced payment of £200. A few days later, the conveyancer contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Yorkshire BS panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
I'm buying a new build house in Grange Over Sands with the aid of help to buy. The builders would not reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The estate agent suggested that I not to tell my solicitor about this extras as it may affect my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.
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.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £305k and found one close by in Grange Over Sands I like with a park and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Grange Over Sands for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will be an issue. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
