It has been five months following my purchase conveyancing in Stroud took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £180,000. 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.
How does conveyancing in Stroud differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Stroud approach us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because developers in Stroud usually acquire the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Stroud or who has acted in the same development.
Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Stroud in advance of retaining lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the property. The surveyor advised that some banks tend refuse to issue a loan on this type of premises.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Stroud. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
