Are the BSA planning on creating a online directory to to identify firms on the Darlington Building Society conveyancing panel for example in Cowley?

Lexsure has not been advised of any plans on the part of the BSA to develop such a register.

2 months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Cowley completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

How does conveyancing in Cowley differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Cowley approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Cowley tend to purchase the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Cowley or who has acted in the same development.

I decided to have a survey done on a house in Cowley prior to appointing solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. My surveyor has said that some mortgage companies will not issue a loan on a flying freehold home.

It depends who your proposed lender is. Santander has different instructions for example to Halifax. If you contact us we can check with the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Cowley. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Cowley to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.
