Just acquired a semi-detached house in Rustington , how long should it take for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Rustington conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be sure the registration formalities are dealt with.

As far as conveyancing in Rustington is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can adjust according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested parties. At present roughly 80% of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer delays. Registration occurs after the new owner is living at the property therefore an expedited registration is not always primary concern yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

I am purchasing a new build house in Rustington with a loan from Barclays . The developers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The estate agent advised me not reveal to my conveyancer about this extras as it will 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 developer 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%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Rustington is the location of the property. Is there any guidance you can give?

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