My grandson is purchasing a house that has just been built in Clarborough with a home loan from Lloyds. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. This document is news to me - what is it and who needs sight of it?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Lloyds conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor 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 Lloyds conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
What can a local search inform me about the house we're purchasing in Clarborough?

My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, but the property agent informed us that the seller will only issue a contract if we appoint their chosen conveyancers as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Clarborough
We suspect that the seller is not behind this request. If they require ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and explain that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to use your own,trusted Clarborough conveyancing firm - rather thanthose that will provide their negotiator at the agency a kickback or hit his conveyancing thresholds pre-set by head office.
Are there common deficiencies that you see in leases for Clarborough properties?
Leasehold conveyancing in Clarborough is not unique. Most leases are drafted differently and legal mistakes in the legal wording can sometimes mean that certain sections are erroneous. The following missing provisions could result in a defective lease:
-
Clauses dealing with recovering service charges for expenditure on the building or common parts. Repairing obligations to or maintain parts of the premises
A defective lease will likely cause problems when trying to sell a property primarily because it impacts on the ability to obtain a mortgage on the property. Birmingham Midshires, The Mortgage Works, and Godiva Mortgages Ltd all have very detailed conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. Where a lender has been advised by their lawyers that the lease does not cover certain provisions they may refuse to grant the mortgage, obliging the buyer to pull out.
I inherited a basement flat in Clarborough, conveyancing having been completed half a dozen years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Corresponding flats in Clarborough with an extended lease are worth £265,000. The ground rent is £50 invoiced annually. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2101
With only 76 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £8,600 and £9,800 plus legals.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
