I have todaybecome aware that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Filey for a purchase of a leasehold flat 9 months ago. How can I check that the property is in my name in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest way to see 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 Filey conveyancing specialists.
I am purchasing a new build house in Filey with the aid of help to buy. The developers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The sale representative suggested that I not reveal to my lawyer about the extras as it could affect my loan with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
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 leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Filey I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Filey suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
