There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion.

I am purchasing a new build house in Eastcote with a mortgage from TSB. The builders refused to reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The sale representative advised me not inform my solicitor about the extras as it may affect my mortgage 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 am looking for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Eastcote I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it only has 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Eastcote for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.

I am using a search engine for the words on line conveyancing in Eastcote it reveals many property lawyersin the area. How do I determine which is the suitable solicitor for me?
