Forgive me if this question is silly but I am unexperienced as a first time buyer of a ground floor flat in England Springs. Do I pick up the keys to the house on completion from my lawyer? If this is the case, I will find a local conveyancing solicitor in England Springs?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Your solicitors will electronically transfer the completion advance to the vendor’s conveyancers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you should be called to receive the keys from the Estate Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.
I am purchasing a 4 bedroom semi-detached house in England Springs. Our aim is to an extension at the rear at the property.Will legal conveyancing on the property include enquiries to ascertain if these works are allowed?
Your solicitor should review the registered title as conveyancing in England Springs will occasionally reveal restrictions in the title deeds which prohibit certain works or necessitated the permission of another owner. Many extensions require local authority planning consent and approval under the building regulations. Certain areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. You should check these issues with a surveyor prior to committing yourself to a purchase.
Is it the case that all England Springs solicitor practices on the Nottingham conveyancing panel are governed by the SRA?
As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Nottingham conveyancing panel they would need to be governed by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority. Many lenders do list licenced conveyancers on their panel and in such a situation the firms would be overseen by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.
I have todaybecome aware that Action Conveyancing have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in England Springs for a purchase of a leasehold flat 12 months ago. How can I check that my home is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?
The quickest method to see if the premises 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 England Springs conveyancing specialists.
I am purchasing my first flat in England Springs with a mortgage from Coventry Building Society. The developers would not move on the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The house builders rep suggested that I not disclose to my conveyancer about this side-deal as it could impact my loan with the bank. 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%.
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've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. England Springs is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?
Flying freeholds in England Springs are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside England Springs you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in England Springs may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

I only have 62 years left on my lease in England Springs. I am keen to extend my lease 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 apply to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be granted an extra 90 years by the Court. You will be obliged to demonstrate that you or your lawyers have done all that could be expected to locate the landlord. On the whole a specialist should be helpful to conduct investigations and prepare a report to be used as proof that the freeholder can not be located. It is wise to seek advice from a conveyancer both on proving the landlord’s absence and the application to the County Court overseeing England Springs.

There are no doubt additional issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
