Me and my brother have a renovated Edwardian house in Dewsbury. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Platform Home Loans Ltd. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the matching property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Dewsbury and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also question the situation with your conveyancing lawyer who conducted the work.

I'm buying a new build house in Dewsbury with the aid of help to buy. The builders refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The house builders rep advised me not reveal to my solicitor about the extras as it will impact my loan with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the UK Finance website. UK Finance 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.

Dewsbury Leasehold Conveyancing - A selection of Queries before Purchasing

    Where a Dewsbury lease has less than eighty years it will have adverse implications on the salability of the apartment. It is worth checking with your mortgage company that they are willing to lend given the lease term. A short lease means that you will most likely have to extend the lease sooner rather than later and it is worth finding out what this would cost. For most Dewsburylease extensions you would need to own the residence for two years before you are legally able to exercise a lease extension. Who takes responsibility for maintaining and repairing the building? This question is useful as a) areas may cause problems for the block as the common areas may begin to deteriorate where maintenance remain unpaid b) if the leasehold owners have a dispute with the managing agents you will need to have full disclosure
