I'm purchasing a new build house in Burbage with the aid of help to buy. The builders would not move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The sale representative advised me not inform my conveyancer about this side-deal as it would impact my mortgage with Yorkshire Building Society. Is this normal?.
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.
Estate agents have just been given the go-ahead to market my garden apartment in Burbage. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, however I have recently had a quarterly maintenance charge invoice – Do I pay up?
Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should discharge the invoice as usual as all ground rent and maintenance invoices should be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
I own a garden flat in Burbage, conveyancing having been completed 3 years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Similar properties in Burbage with a long lease are worth £265,000. The ground rent is £50 levied per year. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2102
With just 76 years left to run the likely cost is going to span between £8,600 and £9,800 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply the actual costs in the absence of detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
My brother mentioned that when selecting a conveyancing firm they need approved by your mortgage company. It happens to be my first home move but I have an AIP via HSBC and I already have a bricks and morter conveyancing lawyer in Burbage in place. Does Santander require an approved lawyer to be used? Does a list of approved firms even exist so I can choose a conveyancing solicitor in Burbage?
You should instruct a solicitor that is on the Santander panel. Simply call your chosen Burbage conveyancing solicitor and ask if they are on the Santander panel. If they are not approved you have a couple of options available to you here:
- Proceed with your preferred Burbage conveyancer but Santander will undoubtedly instruct a lawyer from their conveyancing panel. This will result in additional cost together with probable delay.
- Choose a new property lawyer to conduct the conveyancing, obviously checking they are on the Santander conveyancing panel.
- Appeal to your property lawyer to seek to join the mortgage company panel.
