The loan offer from NatWest for the remortgage of my 2 bedroom flat is to be issued any day now. Are you able to put forward a low cost conveyancing lawyer in Gainsborough?
You have come to the wrong site to search for cut-price fees for conveyancing solicitors in Gainsborough. Our intention is to offer value for money conveyancing but we do not aim to work with the cheapest lawyers. Avoid the trap of appointing organisations enticing you with £100 conveyancing in Gainsborough. In your best case scenario, in being led by cheap conveyancing, you will get your money’s worth and at worst you will end up spending a lot in extras and still not get the service required.
In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Gainsborough? Why is this being asked of me?
It is indeed that case that the requirement set out by your solicitor has nothing to do with conveyancing in Gainsborough. However these days you can not complete any conveyancing deal in the absence supplying proof of your identity. This usually takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence plus a bank statement. Remember if you are supplying your driving licence as proof of ID it must be both the paper element and photo card part, one is not satisfactory without the other.
Evidence of your origin of funds is mandated under Money Laundering Regulations. You should not be offended when you are asked to produce this as your conveyancing solicitor will need to have this information on record. Your Gainsborough conveyancing lawyer will need to see evidence of proof of funds before they are able to accept any money from you into their client account and they should also ask additional queries concerning the source of monies.
My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Gainsborough. I I am struggling to find out if they are on the Godiva Mortgages Ltd conveyancing panel. Can you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?
You should phone the conveyancer and enquire if they are on the lender panel. Alternatively you can call Godiva Mortgages Ltd who may be able to help.
I'm buying a new build house in Gainsborough with a loan from Yorkshire Building Society. The sellers would not move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent advised me not to tell my conveyancer about the extras as it could put at risk my mortgage with Yorkshire Building Society. 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 am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Gainsborough. Before I set the wheels in motion I want to be sure as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Gainsborough - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
I inherited a 2 bed flat in Gainsborough, conveyancing was carried out September 2008. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Comparable flats in Gainsborough with over 90 years remaining are worth £165,000. The ground rent is £50 yearly. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2102
With only 77 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £7,600 and £8,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to provide the actual costs without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
