Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bessacarr

My grandson is buying a house that has just been built in Bessacarr with a mortgage from RBS. His solicitor has said that there is a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. This document is news to me - what is it and who needs sight of it?

The document is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the transaction. 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.

I am due to move house in October. Should my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. On a separate note, can you suggest a removal company in Bessacarr. Conveyancing solicitor was chosen prior to coming across this page.

On the afternoon of completion you will need to collect the house keys from your property agent however this should only occur once the vendors solicitors inform the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be given over. You can advise the removal company that you are ready to move in. We do not recommend a particular removal organisation but can help you find a residential property solicitor in Bessacarr or a legal practice with expertise in conveyancing in Bessacarr.

I have been advised by my solicitor that restrictive coveneant insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Bessacarr conveyancing?

The right level of restrictive coveneant indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Nationwide Building Society and Skipton Building Society. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to borrowers take out such policies.

It is not clear whether my lender obliges me to make sure the lease term for the flat is extended prior to the completion date. I have telephoned my Bessacarr bank branch on various occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they would lend. My Bessacarr conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- telephoned and was told they refuse to lend based on their specific requirements. Who do I believe?

The property lawyer must comply with the CML Handbook section two provisions for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

I have justfound out that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Bessacarr for a purchase of a leasehold flat 12 months ago. How can I be sure that my home is registered correctly in the name of the former proprietor?

The easiest way to see if the premises is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Bessacarr conveyancing specialists.

How does conveyancing in Bessacarr differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Bessacarr contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Bessacarr typically purchase the real estate, 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 conveyancers 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 Bessacarr or who has acted in the same development.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Bessacarr is the location of the property. Can you offer any advice?

Flying freeholds in Bessacarr are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Bessacarr you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bessacarr may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

What advice can you give us when it comes to appointing a Bessacarr conveyancing practice to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?

If you are instructing a solicitor for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Bessacarr conveyancing firm) it is imperative that they be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of conveyancing. We recommend that you speak with two or three firms including non Bessacarr conveyancing practices prior to instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions might be useful:

    If the firm is not ALEP accredited then why not? What volume of lease extensions have they carried out in Bessacarr in the last twenty four months?
