Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Cheddar

IfI was to purchase a freehold propertyin Cheddar for cash and dispense with a survey and no conveyancing searches how much should I expect to to save on my conveyancing in Cheddar?

The sole reduction in fees you would make on is the Cheddar conveyancing searches. A solicitor is obliged to do the vast majority of work - money laundering, communicating with the sellers property lawyer, SDLT return, register the title etc. A slight saving might be made by not needing to register a charge however it won't be significant.

Have purchased a a semi-detached house in Cheddar , how long should it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my title? My Cheddar conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to check that my name is registered.

As far as conveyancing in Cheddar registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry need to notify any interested parties. As of today in the region of 80% of such applications are completed within 12 days but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups. Registration is effected after the purchaser has moved in to the premises so post completion formalities is not always primary concern but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Cheddar with a mortgage from Alliance & Leicester . The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative told me not inform my solicitor about the side-deal as it will affect my loan with Alliance & Leicester . Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Cheddar is where the house is located. Is there any guidance you can impart?

Flying freeholds in Cheddar are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Cheddar you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Cheddar may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

I'm refinancing my primary property to a BTL loan with Bank of Ireland and intend to use the remaining equity towards further house. The location we are looking at is Cheddar. Will your solicitors be able to act for the two banks and link together the conveyances?

Make use of our search tool on this page to check that the conveyancers are approved by both mortgage companies. Assuming that they are your conveyancer will be able to connect the two transactions but you should talk with you solicitor and communicate your expectations and needs.

I have just appointed agents to market my basement flat in Cheddar. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, however I have just received a quarterly service charge invoice – what should I do?

It best that you discharge the invoice as normal as all rents and service invoices will be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until 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. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

Leasehold Conveyancing in Cheddar - Examples of Questions you should ask before buying

    Does the lease include onerous restrictions? The answer will be useful as a) areas can cause problems for the building as the communal areas may begin to deteriorate where services remain unpaid b) if the leaseholders have an issue with the running of the building you will need to know about it Please note if it is fewer than eighty years it will affect the salability of the property. It is worth checking with your bank that they are willing to to proceed given the lease term. A short lease means that you will probably need a lease extension sooner rather than later and you need to have some idea of what this will be. Remember, in most cases you would need to own the property for a couple of years in order to be legally able to carry out a lease extension.
