My wife and I are purchasing a brand new duplex in Kensal Rise and my solicitor is informing me that she has to the mortgage company to disclose incentives from the seller. I am on a tight deadline to sign contracts and I would rather not delay the conveyancing. Is my lawyer right?

You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your conveyancing practitioner. A precondition to being on a mortgage company panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions. The CML Conveyancing Handbook requires that your lawyer have the appropriate Disclosure of Incentive form completed by the developer and accepted by your lender.

Kensal Rise leasehold conveyancing transactions usually involve additional investigations than freeholds including investigating the Lease, liaising with the Landlord such as serving relevant notices on the Landlord or managing agent, obtaining up-to-date service charge and management information, obtaining Landlord’s consents and reviewing management accounts and formation documents.

I am due to move home in October. Does my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you recommend a removal company in Kensal Rise. Conveyancing lawyer was chosen before I stumbled across your website.

On the afternoon of completion you can collect the house keys from your estate agent but this can only occur after the vendors solicitors confirm to the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be passed over. Subsequently you will need to advise the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal organisation but can help you find a conveyancing in Kensal Rise or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Kensal Rise.

Your property lawyer should review the registered title as conveyancing in Kensal Rise will occasionally reveal restrictions in the title documents which restrict categories of works or need the permission of another owner. Some extensions require local authority planning permissions and approval in accordance building regulations. Some areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or impact extensions. You should check these things with a surveyor before you commit yourself to a purchase.

If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
