Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Ickenham

It is a dozen years since I acquired my property in Ickenham. Conveyancing solicitors have now been retained on the sale but I can't find my title deeds. Is this a major issue?

Don’t worry too much. Firstly the deeds may be kept by the lender or they may be in the possession of the solicitor who acted in the purchase. Secondly in all probability the land will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing lawyers procuring up to date copy of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Ickenham relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your property is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

I used Wolstenholmes several years past for my conveyancing in Ickenham. Now, I need my documents however the law firm is no longer operating. What do I do?

You should call the Solicitors Regulatory Authority (SRA) to assist in tracing your conveyancing files. They can be contacted on please contact on 0870 606 2555. Alternatively, you should use their online form to make an enquiry.

I am purchasing a new build house in Ickenham with a loan from Clydesdale. The sellers would not reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The sale representative told me not to tell my solicitor about this side-deal as it would impact my loan with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

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.
