Reasons to use our Ripley conveyancing solicitors

  • 1 Ripley conveyancers are likely to have connections at the local Land Registry Office, Local Authority and selling agents

  • 3 Conveyancer conveyancing lawyers have excellent personal links with Ripley estate agents and work very closely with them and local surveyors so as to ensure transactions proceed expeditiously.
  • 4 Low cost packages from online conveyancers might seem attractive. However, these organisations are often located hundreds of miles away with little understanding of the factors that affect property transactions in Ripley
  • 5 Ripley solicitors have a crucial edge when it comes to Ripley conveyancing as they have valuable local knowledge of local authority requirements, planning policies and other issues that will impact your sale or purchase

It has been three months following my purchase conveyancing in Ripley completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £160,000. 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 premises 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.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Ripley I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it only has 61 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Ripley in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

I'm refinancing my current property to a buy to let loan with Bank of Scotland and intend to use the remaining equity as a down payment on a second house. The neighborhood we are talking about is Ripley. Will your lawyers be able to act for the two lenders and tie in the conveyances?
