I am soon to exchange on the purchase of a house in Moss Nook but as a consequence of wreckage from some water damage at the property I have managed to agree compensation from the current proprietors in the sum of £2k by way of a deduction in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of amending the contract yet Aldermore are not allowing this. Why were they approached?
Any solicitor being on the Aldermore approved list is obliged to inform Aldermore of any amendments to the purchase price. If you prohibit your solicitor to notify the reduction to Aldermore then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Aldermore and you would have to appoint a new conveyancing practitioner for your conveyancing in Moss Nook.
I purchased a freehold house in Moss Nook but still pay rent, why is this and what is this?
It is rare for properties in Moss Nook and has limited impact for conveyancing in Moss Nook but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.
Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges date back many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the creation of fresh rentcharges from 1977 onwards.
Old rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 is to be extinguished.

Just acquired a semi-detached house in Moss Nook , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Moss Nook conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to check that my name is recorded.
As far as conveyancing in Moss Nook is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust according to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry need to notify any third parties. At present in the region of three quarters of submission are fully addressed within two weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Historically registration is effected once the purchaser has moved in to the property thus 'speed' is not usually an essential issue but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
