Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Laindon

2 months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Laindon took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £160,000. 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.

I am purchasing a new build house in Laindon with a mortgage from Lloyds TSB Bank. The sellers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative advised me not to tell my conveyancer about the deal as it may put at risk my loan with the bank. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Laindon is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?

Flying freeholds in Laindon are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Laindon you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Laindon may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

At this site get a fixed fee costs illustration via a Solicitor or Licensed Conveyancer that has a full understanding of the issues for your conveyancing in Laindon. As opposed to estate agents and many comparison sites we do not have commission arrangements with solicitors.

I have just appointed agents to market my garden apartment in Laindon. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, but I have recently had a yearly maintenance charge invoice – Do I pay up?

It best that you discharge the maintenance contribution as usual as all ground rent and maintenance invoices will be allotted on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

I am the registered owner of a 1 bedroom flat in Laindon, conveyancing formalities finalised August 2007. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Comparable flats in Laindon with a long lease are worth £190,000. The ground rent is £65 per annum. The lease finishes on 21st October 2087

With 61 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to range between £19,000 and £22,000 as well as professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to provide the actual costs in the absence of comprehensive investigations. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action placing reliance on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.

We are about to complete on the purchase a property in Laindon but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have negotiated recompense from the owner of £2k by way of a adjustment in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process but the lender will not permit this. Should they have been notified?

Your lawyer listed on a lender approved list is required to disclose to the mortgage company of any changes to the purchase price. In the event that you prohibit your lawyer to disclose the price change to your lender then they would have to discontinue representing you and the mortgage company.
