Last July we completed a house move in Clayton-le-Moors. We have since encountered a number of issues with the property which we consider were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been ordered as part of conveyancing in Clayton-le-Moors?
The question is vague as to the nature of the problems and if they are unique to conveyancing in Clayton-le-Moors. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the buying process are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a seller answers a form referred to as a SPIF. answers provided is incorrect, then you may have a claim against the vendor for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Clayton-le-Moors.
Have just purchased a repossessed house at auction in Clayton-le-Moors. Conveyancing is needed. What are my next steps?
Now that you are legally bound yourself to purchase you now have to choose a conveyancing solicitor soon as you are faced with a tight a fixed date to complete the deal. An auction property should have a bespoke auction pack. This should include the copy title deeds, local authority and drainage searches. Where you are dealing with leasehold property the conveyancing pack may provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing paperwork specific to leasehold premises. You must hand this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor at the earliest opportunity. You also need to ensure that that you have the requisite funding in order to complete the transaction on the set completion date.
I happen to be the only beneficiary of my late mum's will with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Clayton-le-Moors. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in October. I plan to dispose of the house. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', which means that my property ownership may be treated the same way as though I had purchased the property in October. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook obliges solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be affected by that. How sensible a view lenders take of it, depend on the lender as this requirement is chiefly there to pick up on subsales or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.
Planning on purchasing a maisonette in Clayton-le-Moors. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Principality conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Clayton-le-Moors solicitor is on the Principality conveyancing panel.

Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.
