I am purchasing residence in Goodwick. My Solicitor has never been on on the bank conveyancing panel. Can I still appoint my Goodwick conveyancing solicitor even though they are not on the bank panel?
You must appoint a conveyancer to complete the formalities when you need a mortgage to buy your property. They will conduct all the necessary legal checks on the property, make sure that you’re properly registered as the owner and ensure that all the necessary mortgage documentation is dealt with. One may appoint a Goodwick conveyancer of your choosing. However, where the conveyancing practitioner appointed is not a member of the bank approved list further fees will be levied as separate legal representation will be need by the mortgage company. Conveyancing panel applications can be submitted, so if your conveyancer has not historically sought membership they can do so.

It is is a decade since I purchased my house in Goodwick. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been instructed on the sale but I am unable to track down my title deeds. Is this a problem?
Don’t worry too much. First there is a chance that the deeds will be retained by the lender or they could be in the possession of the conveyancers who acted in the purchase. Secondly in all probability the property will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers acquiring current official copies of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Goodwick involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Goodwick with a mortgage from Leeds Building Society. The sellers would not move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent told me not inform my conveyancer about this side-deal as it will adversely affect my mortgage with the lender. Is this normal?.
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 flat up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Goodwick I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Goodwick for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
Should you require a home loan that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
