My nephew is in the process of securing a newly built flat in Kibworth Beauchamp with a mortgage from RBS. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The form is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the RBS conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when asked. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the RBS conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Forgive me if this question is silly but I am unseasoned as FTB of a two bedroom flat in Kibworth Beauchamp. Do I receive the keys to the premises on the completion date from my lawyer? If so, I will instruct a High Street conveyancing solicitor in Kibworth Beauchamp?
On the day of completion you will not be required to go to the conveyancers office in Kibworth Beauchamp. Your solicitors will electronically transfer the purchase money to the seller's solicitors, and once they have received this, you should be able to pick up the keys from the property Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.
I have been told by my conveyancer that lack of right of way insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Kibworth Beauchamp conveyancing?
The right level of lack of right of way indemnity insurance depends on your lender. It would differ for example between Yorkshire Building Society and The Mortgage Works. Conveyancing solicitors as opposed to borrowers take out such policies.
I have paid off my mortgage with Aldermore. I assume I don't need a Kibworth Beauchamp conveyancing practitioner on the Aldermore panel to discharge the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.
If you have finished paying off your Aldermore mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Aldermore mortgage from the register. Aldermore, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Aldermore has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Aldermore has instructed the Land Registry to do so

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Kibworth Beauchamp is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Kibworth Beauchamp are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Kibworth Beauchamp you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Kibworth Beauchamp may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. 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 property.
Why do Kibworth Beauchamp conveyancing fees are more expensive for leasehold and freehold properties?
When buying a leasehold property there is more work involved purely due to the fact that usually there are further parties involved in the form of the freeholder and/or Management Agents. As part of a lawyers enquiries they will check that all ground rent and service charges are paid up to date amongst other general leasehold matters. For this reason, the Sellers lawyers usually have to refer to the freeholder or Managing Agent for their replies to our questions. This may be time consuming and beyond the lawyers control
