My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Chinnor. Conveyancing is needed. What happens now?

Having legally committed yourself to purchase you must retain a conveyancing practitioner quickly as you are facing a tight a fixed date to complete the transaction. All auction property should have an associated legal pack. This will likely include most,if not all of the paperwork that your solicitor will need.

We are due to move property in April. Should my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Chinnor. Conveyancing lawyer was chosen prior to coming across your page.

On the afternoon of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from your estate agent but this should only be done when the vendors lawyers inform the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be released.

We previously appointed solicitors located in Chinnor on the Leeds Building Society solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a supplemental charge for handling the Leeds Building Society mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Leeds Building Society?

As unfair as it may appear, as long as it’s in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your property lawyer is entitled to charge a fee for this. The charge is not dictated by Leeds Building Society but by your Chinnor property lawyer. Plenty of firms on the Leeds Building Society panel will charge ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.

I require expedited conveyancing in Chinnor as I am under an ultimatum to exchange contracts within one month. A home loan is not required. Can I decline from having conveyancing searches to save money and time?

If.Given you are not getting a mortgage you are at free not to have searches conducted although no solicitor would advise that you don't. With plenty of history conveyancing in Chinnor the following are examples of issues that can appear and therefore affect future mortgageability: Enforcement Notices, Outstanding Charges, Outstanding Grants, Road Schemes,...

I'm buying a new build house in Chinnor with a loan from Yorkshire Building Society. The sellers refused to move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The property agent suggested that I not reveal to my conveyancer about the side-deal as it will put at risk my mortgage with Yorkshire Building Society. 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.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Chinnor I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it's only got 52 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Chinnor suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
