My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Broseley. Conveyancing is necessary. What happens now?
Having exchanged you will need to instruct a conveyancing lawyer as a matter of urgency as you will have a pending a fixed date to complete the property. Every auction property should have a corresponding legal set of papers. This should include the copy title deeds, local authority and drainage searches. Where you are dealing with leasehold premises the conveyancing papers should include a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing paperwork pertinent to leasehold premises. You must hand this to the lawyer instructed by you ASAP. Do make sure that your finances are in place to complete the transaction on the set completion date.
I am purchasing a property in Broseley. One unusual aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Nottingham have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?
As you are obtaining a mortgage with Nottingham your lawyer must comply with the formal instructions set out in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Nottingham. The CML Handbook includes minimum specifications for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to Nottingham where a lease does not comply with these specifications. The provisions relate to the installation of panels on properties nationwide and is not limited to Broseley.
I am buying my first flat in Broseley benefiting from help to buy. The developers would not budge the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The estate agent suggested that I not reveal to my conveyancer about this extras as it would put at risk my loan with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer 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.
I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Broseley I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Broseley suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
I'm remortgaging my current property to a BTL mortgage with Britannia and intend to use the remaining equity towards further property. The location we are interested in is Broseley. Will your conveyancers be able to act for both sets of mortgage companies and link together the conveyances?
Make use of our comparison tool on this site to check that the lawyers are on the relevant lender panels. On the basis that they are your lawyer will be able to simultaneously deal with the two deals but you should have a chat with you conveyancer and communicate your desired outcome and needs.
