What is your number one tip for choosing a conveyancing solicitor in Liphook

It would be unwise to be seduced by the lowest Liphook conveyancing fees. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

I am assisting my aunt sell her house in Liphook. Does the solicitor order the energy performance certificate or it is for the owner to coordinate?

Following the demise of HIPs, energy performance certificates was maintained a compulsory element of selling a property. An energy assessment needs to be to hand in advance of the property being marketed. It is not a task that conveyancers normally organise. Where you are using a Liphook conveyancing lawyer they might be able to arrange energy performance certificates given their contacts with long established Liphook assessors

We expect to receive a DIP from Co-operative this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Co-operative recommend any Liphook solicitors on the Co-operative conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?

You will need to appoint Liphook solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Co-operative through the process.

Should commercial conveyancing searches reveal planned roadworks that may affect a commercial land in Liphook?

Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Liphook will execute a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers expend in looking into accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Liphook. The search result sets out definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Liphook.

For every commercial conveyancing transaction in Liphook it is critical to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site. The absence of identifying developments where adoption procedures have not been addressed adequately could cause delays to Liphook commercial conveyancing transactions as well as present a risk to future plans for the site. These searches are not ordered for domestic conveyancing in Liphook.

4 months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Liphook completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 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 premises 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 am buying my first flat in Liphook benefiting from help to buy. The developers would not reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The property agent told me not disclose to my conveyancer about the side-deal as it would impact my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.

What are the common defects that you come across in leases for Liphook properties?

There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in Liphook. Most leases are individual and drafting errors can sometimes mean that certain clauses are wrong. For example, if your lease is missing any of the following, it could be defective:

    A provision for the recovery of money spent for the benefit of another party. Repairing obligations to or maintain parts of the premises

You may have a problem when selling your property if you have a defective lease as they can affect a potential buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage. Accord Mortgages Ltd, The Mortgage Works, and Britannia all have express conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. If a mortgage lender believes that the lease is defective they may refuse to provide security, obliging the purchaser to withdraw.

I purchased a leasehold flat in Liphook, conveyancing was carried out half a dozen years ago. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Corresponding flats in Liphook with over 90 years remaining are worth £165,000. The ground rent is £50 charged once a year. The lease ceases on 21st October 2102

With 77 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £7,600 and £8,800 as well as costs.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed investigations. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other concerns that need to be taken into account and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information before getting professional advice.
