I am soon to complete buying a house in Cherry Willingham but as a result of damage from some water damage at the property I have was able negotiate compensation from the seller of £2k by way of a reduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of a side agreement yet HSBC are not allowing this. Why were they involved?
The conveyancing practitioner being on the HSBC conveyancing panel is required to inform HSBC of any changes to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your property lawyer to notify the price change to HSBC then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, HSBC and you would have to appoint a new conveyancing practitioner for your conveyancing in Cherry Willingham.

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Cherry Willingham. I have a mortgage agreed with UBS. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with UBS, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the UBS conveyancing panel.
I am looking for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Cherry Willingham I like with a park and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 52 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Cherry Willingham for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
I was recommended by a number of property agents in Cherry Willingham to get a quote from a conveyancer using your seach tool. Is there a financial upside for Estate Agents to market your site rather than another?
We don’t give any financial incentive for sending work in our direction. We thought it would be too underhand a fee as members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why aren’t I receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.
