Our god-son is purchasing a new build apartment in Crick with a mortgage from Kent Reliance. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when asked. 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 Kent Reliance conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
I moved into my home on 11 September and the transaction details is not yet on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Crick advises it should be concluded inside ten days. Are titles in Crick uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Crick registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. As of today in the region of 80% of such applications are fully addressed within two weeks but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Historically registration takes place once the buyer has moved in to the premises thus registration formalities is not usually an essential issue yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor should contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I'm buying my first flat in Crick benefiting from help to buy. The developers refused to move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The sale representative suggested that I not inform my lawyer about the extras as it will jeopardize my loan with the bank. Is this normal?.
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.
I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Crick I like with open areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Crick suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
Do I need to be concerned that estate agents that I am dealing with are encouraging me to use an online conveyancing firm rather than a local Crick conveyancing firm?
As is the case with many service providers, often referrals from connections can be worth their weight in gold. Nevertheless there are lots of people with a vested interest in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, mortgage brokers and lenders may suggest solicitors to appoint. On occasion the solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but occasionally there may be a commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You are at liberty to choose your own conveyancer. You need to be aware that most lenders have an approved list of solicitors you are obliged to use for the mortgage aspect of your transaction.
