What does a local search tell me about the house my wife and I buying in Carlton?
Carlton conveyancing often starts with the ordering local authority searches directly from your local Authority or through a personal search company such as PSG The local search plays an important role in many a Carlton conveyancing purchase; as long as you don’t want any nasty once you have moved into your property.

four months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Carlton concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I am purchasing a new build house in Carlton with the aid of help to buy. The developers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead.

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%.
