Having been referred to your service we were going to appoint conveyancing solicitor in Silsoe endorsed by you but stumbled across some other quotes on the internet appear cheaper – how come?
There are a variety of conveyancing outfits advertising at first sight what seems to be cut price. Our recommendation is to think twice as to how much you respect your own move to you are willing to take 'cheap' risks concerning the quality of the conveyancing. Many of them accentuate a bargain quote to catch your eye but plant extra fees in the fine print..
My wife and I intend to remortgage our penthouse in Silsoe with TSB. We have a son 19 who lives at home. Our solicitor has asked us to disclose any adults other than ourselves who reside at the property. The solicitor has now sent a form for our son to sign, giving up any rights in the event that the flat is forfeited by the lender. I have a couple of concerns (1) Is this document specific to the TSB conveyancing panel as he never had to sign this form when we remortgaged 4 years ago (2) In signing this form is our son in any way compromising his right to inherit the property?
First, rest assured that your TSB conveyancing panel solicitor is doing the right thing as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to TSB. This is solely used to protect TSB if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son’s right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of TSB had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.
Can you explain why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Silsoe costs more?

I purchased my apartment on 8 August and the transaction details is yet to be on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Silsoe advises it will be recorded in a couple of weeks. Are transfers in Silsoe particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Silsoe registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any third parties. As of today roughly three quarters of submission are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups. Registration is effected after the new owner has moved in to the property so an expedited registration is not always primary concern yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Silsoe benefiting from help to buy. The developers refused to move on the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The estate agent told me not inform my solicitor about this side-deal as it could put at risk my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.
