It has been 2 months following my purchase conveyancing in Thurmaston completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 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 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.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Thurmaston with a loan from Santander. The developers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The house builders rep advised me not inform my conveyancer about this side-deal as it could impact 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.
My wife and I accepted an offer on a Thurmaston ground floor flat left to us seven years ago in 2011. I have over a decades worth of conveyancing know-how and, although retired, see no reason not to carry out the conveyancing. The purchaser's conveyancing practitioner has informed me that their mortgage company will not allow us to do our own conveyancing mandating that the funds to be released via a solicitor's bank account.
Mortgage instructions to lawyers from all mainstream lenders state that If the vendor is not legally represented the borrower's lawyers should check whether the mortgage company needs to be notified so that a decision can be made if they are willing to progress.
