Me and my brother have a semi-detached Victorian property in Aston. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and National Westminster Bank. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Aston and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also question the situation with your conveyancing practitioner who completed the work.
I am buying a new build house in Aston with a loan from Clydesdale. The developers would not budge the amount so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative advised me not reveal to my solicitor about the deal as it could jeopardize my mortgage with Clydesdale. 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.
Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Aston prior to appointing lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the house. My surveyor advised that some banks will refuse to issue a loan on a flying freehold home.
It varies from the lender to lender. HSBC has different instructions for example to Nationwide. Should you wish to call us we can look into this further via the relevant mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Aston. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Aston to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.
