I got the keys to my flat on 12 November and the transaction details are still not on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Lutterworth expressed confidence that it would be registered inside ten days. Are titles in Lutterworth particularly slow to register?
As far as conveyancing in Lutterworth is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can vary according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry need to notify any other persons or bodies. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are completed within 12 days but occasionally there can be extensive hold-ups. Historically registration takes place once the purchaser is living at the premises therefore registration formalities is not typically primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I am purchasing a new build house in Lutterworth with a loan from Godiva Mortgages Ltd. The sellers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent advised me not disclose to my solicitor about this deal as it would impact my loan with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.
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.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Lutterworth is the location of the property. Is there any guidance you can give?
Flying freeholds in Lutterworth are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Lutterworth you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Lutterworth may decide 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 property.
I have just started marketing my ground floor flat in Lutterworth. Conveyancing is yet to be initiated, however I have just had a quarterly service charge demand – what should I do?
Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should clear the maintenance contribution as you normally would as all rents and maintenance payments will be allotted as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most managing agents will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

I am about to complete on the purchase a house in Lutterworth but as a result of damage from the recent storms I have agreed compensation from the vendor of four thousand pounds taking the form of a reduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process yet my mortgage company will not agree to this. Should they have been notified?
The conveyancing practitioner that is on a lender approved list is obliged to disclose to the bank of any variations to the sale amount. If you prohibit your conveyancer to disclose the price change to your bank then they would have no choice but to disinstructing themselves from representing you and the mortgage company.
