When will exchange of contracts happen for residential conveyancing in Coleshill and am I required to attend the solicitors office?
If you are local to our conveyancing solicitors in Coleshill you are invited in to sign the paperwork. However, the firms we work with provide countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The executing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the solicitor to address the formalities when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Coleshill)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.
I purchased my apartment on 3 February and my personal details is not yet on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Coleshill advises it will be formalised in less than a month. Are titles in Coleshill uniquely lengthy to register?
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Coleshill registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies. As of today in the region of three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Registration is effected once the buyer is living at the premises thus 'speed' is not always primary concern yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
I am purchasing a new build house in Coleshill with a mortgage from Skipton Building Society. The builders would not budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The sale representative suggested that I not reveal to my lawyer about the extras as it could impact my mortgage with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
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.

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.

Coleshill conveyancing lawyers will be well versed in transacting homeson private. Your solicitor will investigate Land Registry data to identify any rights or liabilities.
