We were just about to sign contracts for a ground floor flat in Walthamstow. We encountered a snag. The mortgage offer with Nationwide Building Society expires on 11/8/2025 but the vendors are suggesting a completion date of 13/8/2025. Is it possible to extend the loan expiry date?
The best person to address this concern is your solicitors who will hopefully assess if he or she is better off negotiating with the lender, owner’s solicitors, property agents or conceivably all parties taking into account what has happend in your house move to date.
We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The lender mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to appoint their panel lawyer as I would prefer to use a specialised conveyancing solicitor in Walthamstow?
You should check but the chances are that allocate you one of their panel lawyers if you accept the "fee-free" incentive. Contact the bank and check if they allow a cash alternative. Some lenders have previously offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Walthamstow.
I am purchasing my first flat in Walthamstow with a loan from Godiva Mortgages Ltd. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The house builders rep suggested that I not inform my conveyancer about the extras as it may impact my mortgage 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.
Given that I am about to part with over three hundred thousand on a house in Walthamstow I would like to talk to a lawyer about myhome move prior to appointing the firm. Can this be arranged?
This is something that we encourage - we would be happy to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you liaising with the conveyancer who will be carrying out your conveyancing in Walthamstow.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - each client is unique person, not a case reference. The practices that we put you in touch with believe that the fees you are calculated and presented to you for your conveyancing in Walthamstow should be the figure that you are charged.

Having spent years of correspondence we cannot agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Walthamstow. Can we issue an application to the Residential Property Tribunal Service?
Absolutely. We are happy to put you in touch with a Walthamstow conveyancing firm who can help.

I have been Googling for Walthamstow conveyancing quotes online. Can I be assured that all the Walthamstow practices that are listed on your website are on the mortgage company conveyancing panel?
The law firms listed on our site have assured us via an online form that they are on the bank panel and agreed to advise us to take down their listing in the event of removal off of the bank panel. To date we have not been informed by either a mortgage company or a member of the public that the data about a specific Walthamstow firm being on the lender conveyancing panel is incorrect.
