I am purchasing a newly built apartment in Leiston and my conveyancer is informing me that she has to the bank to reveal incentives from the developer. I am on a tight deadline to exchange and my preference is not to delay the conveyancing. Is my lawyer right?

You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your conveyancer. A precondition to being on a lender 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.

Nowadays there are duplicates made of almost everything, and your lawyer should be aware exactly where to locate all the relevant documentation so you can purchase or sell your house without any difficulty. If duplicates are not available, your lawyer may be able to arrange cover in the form of insurance or indemnities protecting you against possible claims on the property.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Leiston I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 61 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Leiston suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?

Should you need a home loan that many years will be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.

I was pointed in your direction by a number of selling agents in Leiston to locate a solicitor using your seach tool. Is there a financial incentive for Estate Agents to recommend your lawyers ahead of alternative conveyancing organisations?
