I have given 2 months notice to my current landlord and have to leave my let out property in Disley by the end of next month. Conveyancing on my purchase is underway. Can I complete in six weeks as don't want to have to find short term accommodation?
It is unwise to give notice on a rental unless you have exchanged. Assuming that you have not already done so, contact to your conveyancer and urge them to they chase the sellers lawyers, try to a target completion date that everyone will aim to achieve
Having sold my house in Disley last May but the buyer keeps whats apping daily complaining that his lawyer needs to hear from mine. What should my lawyer have done following completion?
Following your disposal your lawyer should forward the transfer documentation and all supplemental paperwork to the purchaser's lawyers. If applicable, your solicitor should also send confirmation that the mortgage has been repaid to the buyers lawyers. There is unlikely to be post completion procedures specific conveyancing in Disley.
I purchased a renovated Edwardian house in Disley. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Lloyds TSB Bank. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold under the matching address. Is it worth asking Lloyds TSB Bank to clarify?
You need to 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 Disley 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 purchasers. You can also check the situation with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the work.
I'm purchasing my first flat in Disley with a mortgage from Aldermore. The builders would not move on the price so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep advised me not reveal to my solicitor about this side-deal as it will put at risk 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.
In my capacity as executor for the will of my grandmother I am disposing of a property in Cardiff but live in Disley. My lawyer (who is 300 miles awayhas requested that I sign a stat dec ahead of the transaction finalising. Can you recommend a conveyancing practitioner in Disley who can attest and place their company stamp on the document?
Technically speaking you are not likely to need to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily any notary public or qualified solicitor will be fine regardless of whether they are based in Disley
