Willinstructing a New Ferry conveyancing lawyer make my purchase more efficient?
Established third party connections is an important consideration when appointing conveyancing solicitors. New Ferry conveyancers enjoy connections with mortgage brokers and agents, local authorities, valuers and other law firms meaning you will move in shortest possible time. Possessing years of intelligence of the local area is an advantage.
My grandson is purchasing a house that has just been built in New Ferry with a mortgage from Bank of Ireland. His conveyancer has advised him of a delay in completing 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 engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when asked. 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 Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

We are aiming to move house in October. Will my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in New Ferry. Conveyancing lawyer was organised before I stumbled across your page.
On the afternoon of completion you can collect the keys from the selling agent however this can only occur once the sellers solicitors inform the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be released. Subsequently you will need to advise the removal men that they can start moving you in. We are not in a position to suggest a specific removal company but can assist you in finding a residential property solicitor in New Ferry or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in New Ferry.
Can you point me to a directory of Yorkshire BS panel conveyancers in New Ferry on the Building Society Association’s Website?
Unfortunately not yet. There is no such tool on the Council of Mortgage Lenders or Building Society Association sites. A small selection of lending institutions make their panel listings open the public over the internet.

I have instructed a New Ferry lawyer having made sure that they are on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
Leeds Building Society will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually Leeds Building Society will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. Your lawyer will not organise the survey but they may be able to put you in touch with a local one that they recommend. RICS offers a find a surveyor service (just google it) where you can search for a qualified surveyor by your New Ferry postcode. As you are getting a mortgage with Leeds Building Society, you could contact them to see if they have a list of approved surveyors in New Ferry.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in last month in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. New Ferry is the location of the property. Can you offer any assistance?
Flying freeholds in New Ferry are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside New Ferry you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in New Ferry 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 residence.
Can you offer any advice when it comes to finding a New Ferry conveyancing firm to deal with our lease extension?
When appointing a solicitor for lease extension works (regardless if they are a New Ferry conveyancing practice) it is imperative that they be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of conveyancing. We advise that you talk with two or three firms including non New Ferry conveyancing practices prior to instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions could be useful:
-
What volume of lease extensions has the firm carried out in New Ferry in the last twenty four months? How familiar is the firm with lease extension legislation?
I bought a leasehold flat in New Ferry, conveyancing formalities finalised December 2002. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding flats in New Ferry with over 90 years remaining are worth £171,000. The ground rent is £50 invoiced annually. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2104
You have 79 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as costs.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more detailed due diligence. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other 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.
