Our god-son is buying a new build apartment in Pentyrch with a mortgage from HSBC. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. This document is news to me - what is it and who needs sight of it?
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 HSBC conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer 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 HSBC conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
I am the sole recipient of my late mum's will and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Pentyrch. The Pentyrch property was put into my name in May. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship could be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in May. Do I have to wait half a year to sell?
The CML handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be caught by that. Some mortgage companies would take a practical view as this requirement principally exists to capture the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of property.
Is there a list of Clydesdale panel solicitors in Pentyrch on the Council of Mortgage Lender’s Website?
No. There is no such facility on the CML or Building Society Association sites. A small selection of lenders make their panel listings visible over the internet. If you are seeking to appoint a Pentyrch solicitor on the Clydesdale please use our facility.
Planning on purchasing a apartment in Pentyrch. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Santander conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Pentyrch conveyancer is on the Santander conveyancing panel.
I used Wolstenholmes a few years past for my conveyancing in Pentyrch. Now, I need my files but the law firm has closed. What do I do?

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Pentyrch. Before I set the wheels in motion I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is registered - and almost all are in Pentyrch - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
