I am aiming to move property in October. Should my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you put forward a removal company in Heckington. Conveyancing lawyer was found prior to coming across your site.
On the day of completion you can pick up the house keys from the property agent but this should only be done once the vendors solicitors inform the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be passed over. After that you should tell the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a specific removal organisation but can assist you in locating a residential property solicitor in Heckington or a solicitor that specialises in conveyancing in Heckington.
I had a mortgage agreed in principle with Santander. Heckington conveyancing lawyers are appointed. How long does it take for Santander to issue the offer to the conveyancing practitioner?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Santander completed the survey? Have you informed Santander as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Santander conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
Completion of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Heckington. Conveyancing was a necessary evil but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. Who do I contact should I wish to lodge a complaint?
Almost all banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Department at head office. We understand that complaints to a lender are sorted out effectively and efficiently. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service, South Quay Plaza, 183 Marsh Wall, London E14 9SR who will take matters further.
My friend suggested that if I am purchasing in Heckington I should ask my conveyancer to execute a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?
This is a search is occasionally quoted for as part of the standard Heckington conveyancing searches. It is a large document of about 40 pages, listing and detailing important information about Heckington around the property and the people living there. It incorporates an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the Heckington Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime details, Heckington Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful data concerning Heckington.
I am buying a new build house in Heckington with a mortgage from Barclays Direct. The developers would not move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative advised me not disclose to my solicitor about the side-deal as it could impact my loan with the bank. 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 have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Heckington I like with open areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Heckington for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
