Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hilperton

I am hoping to receive a mortgage with Halifax. I hope to enlist the help of a Licensed Conveyancer in Hilperton. Does the Halifax Conveyancing panel include Licensed Conveyancers?

The Halifax approved solicitor list is, like many other lenders, represented by the CML or BSA, open to Licensed Conveyancers regulated by the CLC.

Our solicitor has uncovered a a problem with the lease for the flat we are buying in Hilperton. The seller’s lawyers have offered defective title insurance as a solution. We are content with insurance and will pay for it. Our conveyancer has advised that he must ensure that the lender is willing to move forward with this solution. Are we the client or is the lender?

The short answer to your last question is that, notwithstanding the risk of a conflict of interest, you and the mortgage company are the client. Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions. The UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions require your lawyer to disclose issues such as defects with the lease so that the mortgage company can be afforded the opportunity to check with their valuer as to the extent that the value of the property is affected. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.

We see that you have a post code search directory identifying firms on the UBS conveyancing panel. Do companies pay you a referral fee if I appoint them for our conveyancing in Hilperton?

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Hilperton. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Hilperton

    Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. Please supply a car parking plan. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and found one close by in Hilperton I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Hilperton suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage that many years may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
