Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Miles Platting

Having sold my house in Miles Platting last April but the buyer keeps texting daily to say her lawyer needs to hear from mine. What should have happened now that I have sold?

Post completion of your sale your solicitor should forward the transfer deeds and all additional paperwork to the buyer’s solicitors. Where relevant, your solicitor must also confirm that the home loan has been paid off to the purchasers solicitors. There is unlikely to be post completion tasks unique to conveyancing in Miles Platting.

I am told that my conveyancing solicitors will need to check that the building insurance when buying a house in Miles Platting. My lender is Accord Mortgages

Accord Mortgages have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook. As of 4/8/2026, the requirements read as follows :

We are intent on selling our house in Miles Platting and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers used a web based conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Miles Platting. Having lived in Miles Platting for many years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same ailment)

I am buying a new build house in Miles Platting benefiting from help to buy. The developers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated 6k of extras instead. The property agent told me not disclose to my lawyer about the extras as it would affect my loan with the lender. Is this normal?.

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.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Miles Platting is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Miles Platting are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Miles Platting you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Miles Platting may ascertain 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.
