I am being told by my conveyancer that chancel insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Grantham?
The right level of chancel indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Yorkshire Building Society and Coventry Building Society. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.
I have a mortgage with Lloyds for my property in Grantham. Conveyancing has been completed months ago. In the event that I decide to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Lloyds?
Lloyds must be informed of your intention before renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Lloyds’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Lloyds directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Lloyds conveyancing panel lawyer.
Santander have agreed my mortgage in principle, my offer on a flat in Grantham has been accepted, what happens next?
The estate agent will want to be informed of your lawyer's details (ensure that the conveyancing practitioners are on the lender’s approved list). Telephone Santander or your broker and finalise any relevant paperwork. Santander will instruct a valuer who will get in contact with the selling agent or owners to arrange a time for the valuation to take place. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average a fortnight to get a mortgage offer. Santander will issue the offer to you and your solicitors. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Grantham.
four months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Grantham took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Grantham is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Grantham are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Grantham you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Grantham 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 property.
