Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Fulford

Our god-son is purchasing a house that has just been built in Fulford with a mortgage from RBS. His conveyancer has said that there is a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. This document is news to me - what is it and who needs sight of it?

The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the RBS conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when requested. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the RBS conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

There is lots of here about conveyancing in Fulford but what is your top tip for selecting the right conveyancer in Fulford

Do not opt for the lowest Fulford conveyancing fees. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

I'm the sole beneficiary of my late father’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Fulford. The Fulford property was put into my name in March. I want to move. I do know about the CML six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship could be treated the same way as though I had purchased the property in March. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you may be affected by that. Most mortgage companies would take a pragmatic view as this clause chiefly exists to pick up on subsales or the quick reselling of property.

When it comes to lenders such as Coventry BS, do Fulford conveyancing practitioners have to pay a fee to be on the list of approved solicitors?

We are unaware of any lender fees to be on their list of approved firms, although some do charge an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.

Just acquired a semi-detached house in Fulford , how long will it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my title? My Fulford conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain that my ownership is registered.

As far as conveyancing in Fulford is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any third parties. Currently approximately 80% of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Historically registration takes place after the buyer is living at the premises so 'speed' is not usually an essential issue yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Fulford I like with open areas and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Fulford for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?

If you require a home loan that many years will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

Hoping to buy a property located in Fulford and I am already nervous. I couldn't find anything specific about Fulford. Conveyancing will be needed in due course but do you know about the Fulford area? or perhaps some other tips you can share?
