We have rather assertive vendors who has insisted on a exclusivity contract with a down payment 6,000. Are such contracts recommended for Bishops Lydeard conveyancing transactions?
Lock out contracts are agreements between a home vendor and prospective acquirer granting the buyer exclusive rights to the sale of the premises within an agreed time frame. Essentially, a lock out agreement is a contract specifying that you will be issued with a contract at a later date which is the main conveyancing contract. It tends to be used for buyer confidence though in many situations, the vendor may stand to benefit from such agreements as well. There are various pros and cons to using them but you need to check with your lawyer but beware that it may result in incurring more in conveyancing fees. In light of these reasons these agreements are avoided in relation to conveyancing in Bishops Lydeard.
If you had a top tip for choosing a conveyancing solicitor in Bishops Lydeard what would it be?
We would encourage you not to base your choice on the lowest Bishops Lydeard conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need.

I have paid off my mortgage with HSBC. I assume I don't need a Bishops Lydeard lawyer on the HSBC panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your HSBC mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the HSBC mortgage from the register. HSBC, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where HSBC has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- HSBC has instructed the Land Registry to do so
Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Bishops Lydeard. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.
Set out below is a sample of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Bishops Lydeard
-
If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Please supply a car parking plan. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.
I am looking for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Bishops Lydeard I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Bishops Lydeard in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you need a home loan that many years will likely be an issue. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.
My wife and I plan to buy our first property in Bishops Lydeard. Conveyancing lawyer already chosen. The mortgage adviser pointed out that a survey is not appropriate as the property was only built in 1997.
At the very least you should order a Home Buyer's Report. As the premises was built more than a decade ago the property will be without a warranty, so you don't want to take a risk. Where a property of this age shows no signs of problems a Home Buyer's report could be sufficient. The report should highlight any apparent issues and suggest additional investigation where appropriate. If there are any signs of material issues seek a comprehensive Building Survey from the beginning.
