Our son is purchasing a house that has just been built in Poole with a home loan from Bank of Ireland. His conveyancer has advised him of a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?

The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Bank of Ireland 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 Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

When will exchange of contracts happen for domestic conveyancing in Poole and am I required to attend the solicitors branch?

If you are round the corner to our conveyancing solicitors in Poole you are welcome to attend to sign contracts. That being said, the law practices we work with provide a nationwide conveyancing service and give as equally detailed and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The executing of the contract is not the point of no return. A signed contract simply enables the solicitor to exchange contracts at the appropriate time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The procedure is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a long "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Poole)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

Will our lawyer be making enquiries regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Poole.

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for solicitors dealing with homes in Poole. Plenty of people will acquire a house in Poole, fully expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, suitable building insurance, or dispose of the property. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.

Conveyancers are not best placed to offer advice on flood risk, but there are a number of checks that can be undertaken by the purchaser or by their lawyers which should give them a better understanding of the risks in Poole. The conventional set of property information forms supplied to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) includes a usual inquiry of the vendor to determine if the premises has suffered from flooding. In the event that the residence has been flooded in past and is not disclosed by the vendor, then a purchaser could issue a legal claim for losses resulting from an inaccurate reply. The purchaser’s solicitors will also commission an environmental search. This should indicate whether there is any known flood risk. If so, additional investigations should be carried out.

I’m about to sell my basement flat in Poole. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, however I have recently had a half-yearly service charge invoice – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?

The sensible thing to do is clear the service charge as usual given that all rents and maintenance charges will be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

I bought a basement flat in Poole, conveyancing having been completed October 2003. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Similar properties in Poole with a long lease are worth £211,000. The ground rent is £50 levied per year. The lease expires on 21st October 2094

With 68 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to span between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as legals.

The figure above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to advice on the actual costs in the absence of detailed due diligence. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be additional concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward placing reliance on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
