I'm buying a new build house in Hillingdon with the aid of help to buy. The builders refused to budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead.

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%.

I am a negotiator for a busy estate agency in Hillingdon where we have witnessed a few leasehold sales put at risk due to short leases. I have received conflicting advice from local Hillingdon conveyancing firms. Could you shed some light as to whether the seller of a flat can start the lease extension formalities for the purchaser on completion of the sale?

Provided that the seller has owned the lease for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to kick-start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer can avoid having to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or simultaneously with completion of the sale.

Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.

We have reached the end of our tether in negotiating a lease extension in Hillingdon. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on premiums?

Absolutely. We can put you in touch with a Hillingdon conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement case for a Hillingdon property is 164 Nestles Avenue in October 2013. The tribunal agreed with the proposed price of £20,158 for the freehold and determined that that sum is the amount to be paid into court This case related to 2 flats. The unexpired term as at the valuation date was 69 years.

Why is it not possible to complete my conveyancing in Hillingdon on May bank holiday?

This is due to the fact that on completion the purchase price needs to be transferred electronically between the banks of the buyer and seller's conveyancer and currently this can only take place on a business day. So you can't complete on a weekend either.
