Our son is purchasing a new build apartment in Maxton with a mortgage from Nationwide. His lawyer has advised him of a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Nationwide conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when requested. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Nationwide conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
Completed the sale of my flat in Maxton last April but the buyer keeps SMS messaging every few hours to moan that their conveyancer is waiting to hear from mine. What should my lawyer have done now that I have sold?
Post completion of your house sale your conveyancer should send the transfer documentation and all supplemental paperwork to the buyer’s lawyers. Depending on the transaction, your lawyer should also evidence that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been repaid to the purchasers solicitors. There are no post completion steps just for conveyancing in Maxton.
Is there a search tool that I can utilise to find out if the solicitor carrying out my conveyancing in Maxton is on the lender’sapproved panel? I am looking to avoid the situation of having one lawyer for me and one for National Westminster Bank thus paying £175.00 in additional legal costs.
Please do make use of the search tool on this web page. Pick the mortgage company and type ‘Maxton’ or your preferred area and you will see numerous solicitors located in Maxton or by proximity to you.
Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Maxton. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Maxton. Before diving in I want to be sure as to the remaining lease term.
If the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Maxton - 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.
I bought a studio flat in Maxton, conveyancing formalities finalised half a dozen years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Similar properties in Maxton with an extended lease are worth £227,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 levied per year. The lease expires on 21st October 2098
You have 72 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply the actual costs without more detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be additional issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
Is there a reason that Maxton conveyancing fees are higher for leasehold and freehold properties?
Leasehold conveyancing in Maxton can involve additional due diligence such as investigating the lease, communicating with the landlord, obtaining up to date rent receipts, landlord’s consents, management company’s accounts etc.
