The Merton Park conveyancing firm handling our Merton Park conveyancing has uncovered an inconsistency when comparing the information in the home valuation report and what is revealed within the title deeds. My solicitor informs me that he must check that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my conveyancer’s approach legitimate?
Your conveyancing practitioner must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.
When will exchange of contracts happen for domestic conveyancing in Merton Park and am I required to attend the solicitors office?
If you are local to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Merton Park you are invited in to sign the paperwork. However, the firms we work with offer countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give as equally diligent and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The executing of the property agreement is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line is just a prerequisite for the conveyancer to officially exchange at the suitable time, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a lengthy "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Merton Park)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Merton Park benefiting from help to buy. The builders refused to move on the price so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer 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.
There are only Seventy years left on my lease in Merton Park. I now wish to get lease extension but my freeholder is missing. What should I do?
If you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for for permission to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be granted an extra 90 years by the magistrate. You will be obliged to demonstrate that you have made all reasonable attempts to track down the freeholder. On the whole a specialist may be helpful to conduct investigations and to produce an expert document to be accepted by the court as proof that the freeholder is indeed missing.
