I am purchasing a new build house in Nunhead with a loan from Bank of Scotland. The developers would not move on the price so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The house builders rep advised me not disclose to my solicitor about the side-deal as it would adversely affect my mortgage 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.
I decided to have a survey done on a house in Nunhead in advance of appointing solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. The surveyor has said that some banks tend not give a loan on such a premises.

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, but the selling agent informed us that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct the agent's recommended conveyancers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Nunhead
We suspect that the owner is unaware of this requirement. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is counter productive. Try to communicate with the sellers directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to use your own,trusted Nunhead conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will earn their estate agent a commission or hit his conveyancing thresholds set by corporate headquarters.
I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Nunhead. Before diving in I would like to find out the remaining lease term.
Assuming the lease is registered - and almost all are in Nunhead - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
I am the registered owner of a ground-floor 1960’s flat in Nunhead. Given that I can not reach agreement with the landlord, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal make a decision on the sum payable for the purchase of the freehold?
Where there is a missing freeholder or if there is disagreement about what the lease extension should cost, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal to determine the premium.
An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement decision for a Nunhead flat is 41 Endwell Road in March 2013. this matter relateed to the acquisition of the freehold of a mid- terraced Victorian house converted into three separate self-contained dwellings. By an order dated 28/11/2012, Deputy District Judge Cole in the Bromley County Court held that the leaseholders were entitled to acquire the freehold and directed that the premium payable be determined by this Tribunal. The Tribunal assessed the premium to be £14,753 This case related to 3 flats. The unexpired term as at the valuation date was 80.01 years.
