Have just purchased a probate house at auction in Heckmondwike. Conveyancing is required. What are my next steps?

Having exchanged you must retain a conveyancing lawyer as a matter of urgency as you are facing a fast approaching a drop dead date to complete the transaction. Every auction property should have a bespoke auction pack. This will include most,if not all of the documents that your solicitor will need. If you have purchased leasehold premises the auction papers should provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing paperwork specific to a leasehold property. You must hand this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor ASAP. You also need to ensure that you have funds in place to complete on the on the contractual date .

We are not aware of any mortgage company fees to be on their panel, although some do charge an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.

I currently have a mortgage with Skipton for my property in Heckmondwike. Conveyancing was finalised 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 BTL mortgage or inform Skipton?

Your original mortgage agreement with Skipton will provide that you need their approval in advance of letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Skipton’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 Skipton directly. You need not do this via a Skipton conveyancing panel firm.

I have a terraced Georgian property in Heckmondwike. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Accord Mortgages Ltd. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same property. Is it worth asking Accord Mortgages Ltd to clarify?

You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Heckmondwike and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also check the situation with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the conveyancing.

I am purchasing a new build house in Heckmondwike with the aid of help to buy. The sellers would not reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative told me not to tell my lawyer about the deal as it would impact my mortgage with Aldermore. 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.

Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Heckmondwike in advance of retaining solicitors. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. My surveyor has said that some mortgage companies may refuse to grant a loan on a flying freehold home.

It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different requirements for example to Nationwide. If you call us we can check via the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Heckmondwike.
