Clydesdale have agreed my home loan in principle, my bid on a house in Limbury has been accepted, now what?
Your estate agent will need to be advised as to your conveyancer's details (ensure that the property lawyers are on the bank’s panel). Telephone Clydesdale or the broker and complete any outstanding documentation. Clydesdale will appoint a valuer who will get in touch with the estate agent or seller to schedule a time for the valuation to occur. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes about ten days to get a mortgage offer. Clydesdale will send the offer to you and your conveyancers. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Limbury.
3 months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Limbury concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £160,000. 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 property 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'm purchasing my first flat in Limbury with a mortgage from Halifax. The sellers would not move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead.

We're new to the buying process - had an offer accepted, but the agent told us that the owners will only move forward if we use the agent's recommended lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local solicitor who is accustomed to conveyancing in Limbury
We suspect that the owner is unaware of this demand. If they want ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Try to communicate with the sellers directly and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to use your preferred Limbury conveyancing firm - rather thanthe ones that will provide the estate agent a kickback or meet his conveyancing thresholds demanded by corporate headquarters.
