What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Heaton Moor? What am I being asked for?
Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the identification documents of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing retainer. The Terms and Conditions that you are required to sign should stipulate this. Your lawyer also has obligations to obtain certain documents in accordance with the CML Lenders Handbook requirements last updated on 1st December 2014. Where you refuse to provide ID verification documents, your lawyer would not be able to act for you.
I'm purchasing my first flat in Heaton Moor benefiting from help to buy. The sellers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative told me not disclose to my conveyancer about this side-deal as it will affect my mortgage with Barclays Direct. 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.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one near me in Heaton Moor I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Heaton Moor in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

The best form of lease arrangement is a share of the freehold. In this situation the tenants have control and notwithstanding that a managing agent is usually retained if the building is bigger than a house conversion, the managing agent retained by the leaseholders. Generally speaking the cost for major works tend not to be incorporated into the maintenance charges, albeit that a few managing agents in Heaton Moor ask leaseholders to contribute towards a reserve fund created for the specific intention of building a fund for major repairs or maintenance. Most Heaton Moor leasehold apartments will be liable to pay a service charge for maintenance of the building invoiced by the landlord. Where you purchase the property you will have to meet this liability, usually in instalments accross the year. This can differ from a couple of hundred pounds to thousands of pounds for bigger purpose-built buildings. There will also be a ground rent for you to pay yearly, this is usually not a exorbitant sum, say approximately £25-£75 but you should to enquire as on occasion it can be surprisingly expensive.
