My fiance and I changing mortgage lender for our maisonette in Llandaff with Principality. We have a son 18 who lives with us. Our solicitor has asked us to disclose any adults other than ourselves who reside at the property. The solicitor has now sent a form for our son to sign, waiving any legal rights in the event that the flat is repossessed. I have a couple of questions (1) Is this document specific to the Principality conveyancing panel as he never had to sign this form when we remortgaged 3 years ago (2) Does our son by signing this extinguish his entitlement to inherit the property?
On the face of it your lawyer has done nothing wrong as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to Principality. This is solely used to protect Principality if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son’s right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of Principality had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.
I moved into my flat on 11 January and the transaction details is yet to be on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Llandaff said it should be concluded in a couple of weeks. Are titles in Llandaff particularly slow to register?
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Llandaff registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. Currently approximately 80% of such applications are completed within two weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Historically registration takes place once the buyer has moved in to the premises so an expedited registration is not always top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
I'm buying a new build house in Llandaff benefiting from help to buy. The builders refused to move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The house builders rep suggested that I not disclose to my lawyer about this deal as it will adversely affect my loan 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 £195,000 and found one close by in Llandaff I like with amenity areas and station nearby, however it only has 49 years on the lease. There is not much else in Llandaff for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and pass 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 concerning this.
