My relative advised me that where I am purchasing in Partington I should carry out a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?

A search of this type is usually quoted for as part of the standard Partington conveyancing searches. It is not a small report of more than thirty pages, listing and detailing significant information about Partington around the property and the people living there. It incorporates an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the local Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the demographics of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average Property Price, Crime details, Partington Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information about Partington.

It has been 4 months following my purchase conveyancing in Partington took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £170,000. 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.

The estate agent suggested that I not to tell my conveyancer about this deal as it could adversely affect my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

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%.

Can you offer any advice when it comes to appointing a Partington conveyancing firm to deal with our lease extension?

We advise that you make enquires with two or three firms including non Partington conveyancing practices prior to instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions could be helpful:

    What are the charges for lease extension conveyancing? What volume of lease extensions have they completed in Partington in the last 12 months?

I acquired a studio flat in Partington, conveyancing was carried out in 2009. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Similar properties in Partington with a long lease are worth £222,000. The ground rent is £50 per annum. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2095

The figure above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed investigations. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other issues that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information before getting professional advice.

Am in the process of purchasing my first home in Partington. Conveyancing solicitor has been chosen. The financial consultant suggested that a survey is not necessary as the house is only 17 years old.

The bare minimum you need a Home Buyer's Report. Given the residence is over ten years old the property will not benefit from a warranty, so you would be well advised not to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report may suffice. They will highlight any apparent problems and suggest further investigation where relevant. If there are any signs of material issues obtain a full Building Survey from the beginning.
