It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are unique to conveyancing in South Hornchurch. Conveyancing searches and investigations undertaken during the buying process are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a seller answers a questionnaire known as a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information ends up being misleading, then you may have a claim against the vendor for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in South Hornchurch.

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.

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.

We're new on the property ladder - agreed a price, but the agent informed us that the seller will only go ahead if we instruct their recommended conveyancers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a local solicitor used to conveyancing in South Hornchurch

It is highly unlikely the sellers are behind this. If they desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is going to damage their objectives.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in South Hornchurch. Before diving in I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.

Assuming the lease is registered - and almost all are in South Hornchurch - 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 two-bedroom flat in South Hornchurch. Given that I can not reach agreement with the landlord, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal make a decision on the sum payable for a lease extension?

My hope is to acquire a garden maisonette in South Hornchurch. Conveyancing solicitor has been awaiting, from the seller, building insurance schedule.

We have been stalled for the last month…

It is not unheard of in leasehold conveyancing in South Hornchurch to discover Conveyancing in South Hornchurch in a minority of cases reveals that the lease provides for the tenant's to insure their individual flats as opposed to the freeholder insuring the entire block - which is definitely preferable. Do clarify with your lawyer but it would seem that your conveyancer is attempting to establish that the complete building is insured. Insuring your apartment is no help when it comes to rebuilding after a fire if the other flat cannot be rebuilt due to lack of insurance.
