When can the exchange of contracts happen for domestic conveyancing in Gloucestershire and am I required to be at the solicitors office?
Where you are near to our conveyancing solicitors in Gloucestershire you are invited in to sign the paperwork. However, the law practices we work with supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide just as diligent and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The signing of the contract is not the important part. Signing on the dotted line is just a prerequisite for the solicitor to exchange contracts when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Gloucestershire)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
I am buying a new build house in Gloucestershire with a loan from Lloyds TSB Bank. The sellers refused to move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The sale representative told me not reveal to my lawyer about this side-deal as it would impact my mortgage 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 simple, no chain conveyancing. Gloucestershire is the location of the property. Is there any advice you can impart?
Flying freeholds in Gloucestershire are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Gloucestershire you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Gloucestershire may decide 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 residence.

My wife and I purchased a leasehold house in Gloucestershire. Conveyancing and Leeds Building Society mortgage are in place. I have received a letter from someone claiming to own the freehold. Attached was a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1991. The conveyancing solicitor in Gloucestershire who acted for me is not around. What should I do?
First contact HMLR to make sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is indeed the registered owner of the freehold reversion. There is no need to incur the fees of a Gloucestershire conveyancing practitioner to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for less than a fiver. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the legitimate landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.
