At long last a loan offer from Santander for the refinancing of my 4 bedroom flat is expected imminently. Can you suggest a low cost conveyancing practitioner in New Forest?
You are on the wrong site if you are in need of the cheapest conveyancing in New Forest. Our aim is to provide affordable conveyancing but we do not aim to advertise as being the cheapest. Do not be swayed by organisations offering the bait of £100 conveyancing in New Forest. Optimistically, in being led by cheap conveyancing, you will end up with what you pay for and at worst it will result in you paying a lot in extras and still not get the service you were looking for.
My husband and I are refinancing our penthouse in New Forest with Lloyds. We have a son 18 who lives with us. Our solicitor requested us to identify anyone over the age of 17 other than ourselves who lives in the flat. The solicitor has now sent a form for our son to sign, waiving any legal rights in the event that the property is forfeited by the lender. I have two questions (1) Is this form unique to the Lloyds conveyancing panel as he never had to sign this form when we remortgaged 5 years ago (2) In signing this form is our son in any way compromising his right to inherit the property?
On the face of it your lawyer has done nothing wrong as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to Lloyds. This is solely used to protect Lloyds if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son’s right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of Lloyds had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.
I am looking for a flat up to £305k and found one round the corner in New Forest I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, however it's only got 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in New Forest suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
