We are aiming to move house in December. Will my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in Great Missenden. Conveyancing solicitor was organised before I stumbled across your site.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the keys from your estate agent but this should only occur once the sellers conveyancers advise the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be handed over. After that you can tell the removal company that you are ready to move in. We are not in a position to recommend a specific removal company but can assist you in choosing a residential property solicitor in Great Missenden or a lawyer with expertise in conveyancing in Great Missenden.
I am the only beneficiary of my late mum's will with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Great Missenden. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in September. I plan to dispose of the house. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership may be treated the same way as though I had purchased the property in September. Is the property unsalable for six months?
The CML handbook requires conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be caught by that. Some mortgage companies would take a pragmatic view as this clause is principally there to capture subsales or the wholesaling and assigning of property.
I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Great Missenden off the council. I have a mortgage offer with Yorkshire BS. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Yorkshire BS, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel.

A buyer’s lawyers should also commission an enviro search. This will higlight if there is any known flood risk. If so, more detailed inquiries should be conducted.
I'm buying a new build house in Great Missenden with the aid of help to buy. The builders would not reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The property agent advised me not reveal to my solicitor about the deal as it could jeopardize 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.
