I am expecting a mortgage offer from Nat West. My intention is to instruct a Licensed Conveyancer in Bounds Green. Does the Nat West Solicitor panel include conveyancers regulated by the CLC?
The Nat West approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, represented by the CML or Building Society Association, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.
Our grandson is buying a new build apartment in Bounds Green with a home loan from Skipton. His conveyancer has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The form 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 Skipton conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when requested. 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 Skipton conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
Can you explain why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Bounds Green is more expensive?
The conveyancing costs for a leasehold premises in Bounds Green is inevitably higher when contrasted to a freehold residence. This is because there is an amount of supplemental investigations necessary in dealing with the freeholder and management company to collate the evidence about whether the rent and service fee have been discharged and whether there are any major works due in the foreseeable future on repairs or maintenance of the building.

My husband and I have organised a further advance on our home loan from Nottingham as we want to conduct alterations to our house in Bounds Green. Do we need to choose a nearby Bounds Green solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?
Nottingham do not ordinarily appoint a member of their conveyancing panel to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.
Completion of my purchase has taken place for my property in Bounds Green. Conveyancing was of an acceptable standard but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. Who do I contact should I wish to lodge a complaint?
Most banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Team at head office. Ordinarily complaints to a lender are resolved effectively and efficiently. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service, South Quay Plaza, 183 Marsh Wall, London E14 9SR with full details of your complaint.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Bounds Green I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, however it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Bounds Green for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease 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 existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.

A lawyer would need to be really bad in order to consider replacing them. Has the mortgage offer been issued? In the event that it has you need to inform them of the new contact details and have the mortgage documents are re-sent. The solicitor ideally needs to be on the lenders panel to avoid supplemental fees and complications. That should be your starting point.
