Our Rogiet solicitor has spotted a discrepancy between the assumptions in the home valuation survey and what is revealed within the legal papers for the property. My solicitor informs me that he is obliged to ensure that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my lawyer’s course or action correct?
Your conveyancing practitioner must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.

You must hand this to the solicitor working for you at the earliest opportunity. You also need to ensure that that you have the requisite funding in order to complete on the date specified in the contract.

I purchased my house on 1 August and the transaction details are still not registered. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Rogiet advises it should be recorded inside ten days. Are transfers in Rogiet uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Rogiet registration is no faster or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry communicate with any 3rd persons or bodies. At present roughly three quarters of submission are fully addressed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Registration occurs after the new owner has moved in to the premises therefore 'speed' is not usually top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

Can you provide any top tips for leasehold conveyancing in Rogiet with the aim of speeding up the sale process?
- A significant proportion of the delay in leasehold conveyancing in Rogiet can be reduced if you appoint lawyers the minute your agents start advertising the property and request that they start to put together the leasehold documentation which will be required by the purchasers’ lawyers. If you have had conflict with your landlord or managing agents it is essential that these are settled prior to the flat being put on the market. The buyers and their solicitors will be reluctant to purchase a property where there is an ongoing dispute. You may have to bite the bullet and discharge any arrears of service charge or settle the dispute prior to completion of the sale. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled ahead of the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You are still duty bound to disclose details of the dispute to the buyers, but it is clearly preferable to reveal the dispute as over as opposed to unresolved. If you have carried out any alterations to the premises would they have required Landlord’s consent? Have you, for example installed wooden flooring? Rogiet leases often stipulate that internal structural alterations or installing wooden flooring calls for a licence from the Landlord acquiescing to such alterations. If you fail to have the consents in place you should not contact the landlord without contacting your solicitor first. You believe that you know the number of years remaining on your lease but it would be advisable verify this via your solicitors. A purchaser's conveyancer will not be happy to advise their client to proceed with the purchase of a leasehold property the remaining number of years is under 80 years. In the circumstances it is important at an as soon as possible that you consider whether the lease requires a lease extension. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your home on the market for sale.
