My Papworth Everard solicitor has uncovered a discrepancy when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation survey and what is revealed within the legal papers for the property. My lawyer has advised that he must ensure that the bank is happy with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my solicitor’s approach correct?
Your solicitor must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.
In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Papworth Everard? What am I being asked for?
Papworth Everard conveyancing solicitors as well as nationwide property practitioners accross the UK have a duty under Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules to verify the identity of any client with a view to ensure that clients are who they say they are.
Conveyancing clients will need to disclose two forms of certified ID; proof of ID (usually a Passport or Driving Licence) and proof of address (usually a Bank Statement no more than three months).

Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Papworth Everard. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.
Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Papworth Everard
-
Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.

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.
