My grandson is buying a new build apartment in Walton Le Dale with a home loan from RBS. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?

The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the RBS conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when asked. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the RBS conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Completion of my purchase has taken place for my property in Walton Le Dale. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I would like to complain about the lender. How do I make a complaint?

Almost all lenders have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Department at head office. In most cases complaints to a lender are sorted out very quickly. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service, South Quay Plaza, 183 Marsh Wall, London E14 9SR who will take matters further.

I was told four weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Virgin Money. Is it usual for Virgin Money to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Walton Le Dale is approved on their conveyancing panel? Virgin Money have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.

Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Virgin Money to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

After what seems like an age I have had an offer on an apartment in Walton Le Dale accepted, the owners do nevertheless have an associated purchase. The sellers have placed an offer on on an apartment, but it’s not yet tied up, and are looking at other flats booked. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Walton Le Dale. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Yorkshire BS started?

It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (home loan application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Walton Le Dale conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you must check that your solicitor is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. As to the subsequent steps this very much dictated by the circumstances of your case, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market some purchasers would apply for the mortgage with Yorkshire BS and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their solicitor to press on with the conveyancing in Walton Le Dale.

How does conveyancing in Walton Le Dale differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Walton Le Dale contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because developers in Walton Le Dale typically buy the land, 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Walton Le Dale or who has acted in the same development.

What does commercial conveyancing in Walton Le Dale cover?

Walton Le Dale conveyancing for business premises incorporates a wide array of guidance, given by qualified solicitors, relating to business property. For instance, this type of conveyancing can cover the sale or purchase of freehold business premises or, more usually, the assignment of existing leases or the drafting of new leasing arrangements. Commercial conveyancing solicitors can also offer advice on the sale of business assets, commercial loans and the termination of tenancies.

I note that you have a post code search directory listing law firms on the mortgage company conveyancing panel. Do Walton Le Dale conveyancing companies pay you a referral fee if I appoint them for my conveyancing?
