I am thinking of refinancing my flat in North Hykeham, does my lawyer need to be on the RBS Conveyancing panel?
In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the RBS conveyancing panel, but RBS would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same conveyancing matter.
I completed on my flat on 5 August and my personal details are still not on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in North Hykeham said it will be concluded in less than a month. Are titles in North Hykeham uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in North Hykeham is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of 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 whether the Land registry have to notify any third persons or bodies. At present approximately 80% of submission are fully addressed within two weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Historically registration occurs once the buyer is living at the property thus an expedited registration is not typically an essential issue but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer must contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I have been on the look out for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in North Hykeham I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 61 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in North Hykeham for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
