I plan on buying a maisonette in Belsize Park. My property lawyer is not on the bank approved list. Can I still retain my Belsize Park conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the lender list of approved lawyers?
One will need to instruct a conveyancing practitioner to deal with the formalities if you require a loan to buy your property. They will conduct all the necessary legal checks on the property, ensuring that you’re registered as proprietor and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is dealt with. One may instruct a Belsize Park conveyancer of your choosing. However, if the solicitor appointed is not a member of the bank approved list additional costs will be levied as separate legal representation will be required by them. Conveyancing panel applications can be submitted, so where your solicitor has not historically sought membership they should take the chance to apply.
Our son is purchasing a new build apartment in Belsize Park with a mortgage from Clydesdale. His solicitor has said that there is a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Clydesdale 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 Clydesdale conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any interested persons or bodies.
