When will exchange of contracts happen for residential conveyancing in Northolt and do I need to be at the solicitors office?

If you are near to our conveyancing solicitors in Northolt you are welcome to come in to sign contracts. However, the law practices we recommend provide countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give as equally detailed and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The executing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. A signed contract simply enables the solicitor to officially exchange when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Northolt)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

I am purchasing a new build house in Northolt benefiting from help to buy. The builders would not budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The property agent suggested that I not to tell my conveyancer about the deal as it may adversely affect my loan with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Northolt is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can impart?

Flying freeholds in Northolt are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Northolt you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Northolt may ascertain 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.

In the circumstances that you have set out it seems advisable to apply to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs.
