My grandson is buying a house that has just been built in Burton Joyce with a home loan from Virgin Money. His solicitor has said that there is a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?

The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Virgin Money 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 Virgin Money conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Various web forums that I have frequented warn that are the main cause of delay in Burton Joyce house deals. Is that correct?

How does conveyancing in Burton Joyce differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Burton Joyce contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is built. This is because builders in Burton Joyce typically acquire the land, 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Burton Joyce or who has acted in the same development.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one close by in Burton Joyce I like with open areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Burton Joyce suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this.
