Souldappointing a Milton conveyancing lawyer make the legal process smoother?
On the whole conveyancing lawyers in your neck of the woods will have excellent connections with your local authority, which can help with the Milton conveyancing searches that your lawyer will need to carry out. It can only be a plus if they have existing relationships with the Local Land Registry Office your area Milton, other conveyancers in the location and Milton selling agents.
Our grandson is in the process of securing a new build apartment in Milton with a mortgage from Bank of Ireland. His conveyancer has said that there is a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?
The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when requested. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
3 months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Milton concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. 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 asset 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.
How does conveyancing in Milton differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build property in Milton come to us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because builders in Milton usually acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Milton or who has acted in the same development.

In my capacity as executor for the estate of my uncle I am disposing of a house in Neath but I am based in Milton. My solicitor (approximately 250 miles awayneeds me to sign a stat dec before completion. Can you recommend a conveyancing solicitor in Milton who can attest and place their company stamp on the document?
Technically speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily any notary public or solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are Milton based
