The Harehills conveyancing firm handling our Harehills conveyancing has uncovered an inconsistency when comparing the information in the home valuation survey and what is in the title deeds. My solicitor has advised that he must ensure that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my solicitor’s approach correct?

Your conveyancing practitioner must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.

I have been told that property searches are the primary cause of delay in Harehills house deals. Is there any truth in this?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released determinations of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the top 10 causes of delays during the legal transfer of property. Searches are unlikely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Harehills.

How does conveyancing in Harehills differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Harehills come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because builders in Harehills usually acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Harehills or who has acted in the same development.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in Harehills I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Harehills in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a mortgage that many years may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.

In my capacity as executor for the will of my aunt I am selling a residence in Monmouth but I am based in Harehills. My solicitor (approximately 300 kilometers awayneeds me to execute a statutory declaration before the transaction finalising. Could you suggest a conveyancing solicitor in Harehills to attest and place their company stamp on the document?

Technically speaking you are unlikely to be required to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily any notary public or qualified solicitor will be fine regardless of whether they are Harehills based
