Are the Dulverton conveyancing solicitors identified as being on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by Coventry BS?

Dulverton conveyancing firms themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from Coventry BS directly.

My lawyer in Dulverton is not listed on the Nationwide Building Society Approved Panel. Is it possible for me to continue with my family solicitor notwithstanding that they are excluded from the Nationwide Building Society approved list?

The limited options available to you here include:

  1. Complete the purchase with your preferred Dulverton solicitors but Nationwide Building Society will need to retain a lawyer on their list of acceptable firms. This will inevitably rack up the overall conveyancing charges and result in delays.
  2. Get a new lawyer to act in the conveyancing, obviously checking they are Nationwide Building Society approved.
  3. Persuade your Nationwide Building Society based solicitor to try to join the Nationwide Building Society panel

The report sets out definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Dulverton.

I am buying a new build house in Dulverton with a loan from Halifax. The sellers refused to move on the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The estate agent suggested that I not inform my solicitor about the deal as it could impact 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.

There are only 68 years left on my flat in Dulverton. I now want to get lease extension but my landlord is absent. What options are available to me?

On the basis that you meet the appropriate requirements, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be extended by the magistrate. However, you will be required to demonstrate that you have used your best endeavours to locate the lessor. In some cases an enquiry agent would be helpful to conduct investigations and to produce an expert document to be accepted by the court as proof that the freeholder can not be located. It is wise to seek advice from a conveyancer both on devolving into the landlord’s absence and the vesting order request to the County Court overseeing Dulverton.

I bought a 2 bed flat in Dulverton, conveyancing formalities finalised 9 years ago. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Corresponding flats in Dulverton with over 90 years remaining are worth £222,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 charged once a year. The lease expires on 21st October 2096

With just 70 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £9,500 and £11,000 plus legals.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.

My fiance is buying a shared ownership flat in Dulverton. He was given a quote by the lawyer connected to the estate agents totaling £1156 . It was ten years ago since I sold and purchased a property and the fee was £500. Have costs really increased to that extent?
