My wife and I are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in East Molesey and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. Any high street East Molesey lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers instructed an online conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in East Molesey. We have lived in East Molesey for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation that the buyers are looking for.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything.

I have justdiscovered that Stirling Law have been shut down. They carried out my conveyancing in East Molesey for a purchase of a leasehold apartment 18 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is in my name in the name of the previous owner?

The quickest way to check if the property is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of East Molesey conveyancing specialists.

I'm buying a new build house in East Molesey benefiting from help to buy. The sellers refused to move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The estate agent told me not inform my solicitor about this deal as it will affect my mortgage with Bank of Scotland. Is this normal?.

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 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%.
