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.

What are your top tips when it comes to appointing a Millwall conveyancing practice to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?

If you are instructing a property lawyer for your lease extension (regardless if they are a Millwall conveyancing firm) it is essential that they be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work. We advise that you talk with several firms including non Millwall conveyancing practices before you instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions could be of use:

    What are the legal fees for lease extension work? Can they put you in touch with clients in Millwall who can give a testimonial?

I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord to extend my lease without success. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on such issues? Can you recommend a Millwall conveyancing firm to help?

Absolutely. We can put you in touch with a Millwall conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement decision for a Millwall residence is 12, 14 & 16 Hull Close in May 2010. the Tribunal determined that the premium payable for the acquisition of the freehold to the subject premises was the sum of £18,300 This case related to 3 flats.

My wife and I are buying a garden flat in Millwall. When we first instructed property lawyer, they told us that they were on all mainstream bank panels. The mortgage broker contacted us today to say that they are not on the Skipton approved list. Were it to be true, what should we do? Should we simply find a different property lawyer that is on their panel or do we cover the costs for separate representation, with Skipton selecting their own approved lawyer.

When buying a property with the benefit of a mortgage it is normal for the purchaser’s lawyers to also act for the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a property lawyer has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the property lawyer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the lawyer has to meet. Some building societies now insist their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your lawyer should call Skipton to find out if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You don't have to instruct a firm on Skipton's conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Millwall lawyers, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it may delay matters as you have another set of people involved.
