Due to move into my new home in Wembley Park next Friday. I have now been asked to send a copy of my building insurance schedule by my solicitor as as she informs me that she is duty bound to validate that it is in order for the lender. What does the insurance need to cover?
All property lawyers on acting for mortgage companies would need to check that the following risks are covered fire; lightning; aircraft; explosion; earthquake; storm; flood; escape of water or oil; riot; malicious damage; theft or attempted theft; falling trees and branches and aerials; subsidence; heave;landslip;collision;accidental damage to underground services;professional fees, demolition and site clearance costs; and public liability to anyone else. There are some other issues such as the level of excess that are set out in a lender’s Part 2 conditions. These requirements are not limited to conveyancing in Wembley Park.
I am purchasing a garden flat in Wembley Park. How practical is it for me to do the conveyancing?
Leaving aside the complexities and merits of DIY conveyancing in Wembley Park you will have to appoint a solicitor on your lender's conveyancing panel to look after their interests. Most people therefore find it easier to let the solicitor act for them and the lender. Furthermore there is minimal cost savings to be made in you doing conveyancing for yourself and another lawyer conducting the conveyancing for the lender.

Have purchased a a semi-detached house in Wembley Park , how long should it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my ownership? My Wembley Park conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to check that my ownership is recorded.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Wembley Park registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any interested parties. Currently in the region of 80% of such applications are fully dealt with within two weeks but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups. Historically registration takes place once the buyer has moved in to the property so 'speed' is not always top priority yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Wembley Park. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.
Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Wembley Park
-
Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Please supply a car parking plan. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Wembley Park I like with open areas and station nearby, however it's only got 52 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Wembley Park for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
I'm remortgaging a property in Wembley Park. I have found my conveyancer's company on the Law Society's list, but I can't find my conveyancer's name as listed on the regulator's website. Should I be concerned?
Not all staff in the law firm must be listed by the regulator. Provided there is someone qualified to 'oversee' the conveyancing, the actual day-to-day activity can be undertaken by unqualified staff.
