Our son is in the process of securing a new build apartment in Lacock with a mortgage from Skipton. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Skipton conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when requested. 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 Skipton conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

This question may be naive but I am wet behind the ears as FTB of a two bedroom flat in Lacock. Do I collect the keys to the property on completion from my solicitor? If this is the case, I will instruct a local conveyancing solicitor in Lacock?
There is no need to visit the lawyers office on the day of completion. Conveyancing lawyers for you will arrange to send the purchase money to the owner’s solicitors, and once they have received this, you will be invited to pick up the keys from the Estate Agents and start moving into the property. Usually this occurs early afternoon.
We are due to move home in May. Does my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Lacock. Conveyancing lawyer was organised prior to coming across your website.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from the selling agent however this can only occur once the sellers solicitors advise the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be handed over. After that you should advise the removal company that you are ready to move in. We do not suggest a particular removal company but can assist you in choosing a residential property solicitor in Lacock or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Lacock.
When it comes to mortgage companies such as Co-operative, do Lacock lawyers incur a yearly amount to be on the conveyancing panel?
We are unaware of any bank fees to be on their panel, although some do charge an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.
3 months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Lacock took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Lacock is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Lacock are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Lacock you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Lacock may ascertain 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 premises.
