I have been told that property searches are the primary cause of stalling in Lake house deals. Is there any truth in this?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released findings of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the most frequent causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Local searches are unlikely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Lake.
Just acquired a terraced house in Lake , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my title? My Lake conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to check that my ownership is registered.
As far as conveyancing in Lake registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry have to notify any 3rd persons or bodies. Currently approximately 80% of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration is effected after the new owner is living at the premises thus an expedited registration is not typically top priority but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
I'm buying my first flat in Lake with the aid of help to buy. The builders refused to move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent told me not reveal to my solicitor about this deal as it would affect my loan with Accord Mortgages Ltd. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer 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.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Lake. Before I set the wheels in motion I want to be sure as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
If the lease is registered - and most are in Lake - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

How is the lease structured? It would be a good idea to discover if there are any onerous restrictions in the lease.

Having used your search tool I can't find the lawyer I was hoping to instruct as being on the lender conveyancing panel. My lawyer has said that they are on the lender approved panel. How can I be sure given that they are not listed on your directory?

Law firms are listing on a daily basis and it is probably the case that your lawyer is on the lender conveyancing lawyer and you should probably take them at their word. Please do feel free to suggest that they completing their listing on our site as it would only cost them £1 a month to list themselves as being on the bank solicitor panel.
