My son is buying a new build apartment in Newton Abbot with a mortgage from Yorkshire BS. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when requested. 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 Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £305k and identified one close by in Newton Abbot I like with amenity areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Newton Abbot suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

My mother purchased her house in Newton Abbot in 2007. She has been married, widowed and is now remarried. She intends to sell the house in a couple of months. I think she will simply be asked to supply copies of her marriage certificates to the solicitor however she is anxious it could hold up the house move. Should she appoint a solicitor to update the title details for the property?
You are not required to bring up to date the register as long as you have the proof required to show how the change of name occurred.
The purchaser’s conveyancing practitioner should examine the title details and request evidence to establish the change of name for instance marriage documentation.
