My god-son is in the process of securing a newly built flat in South Petherton with a home loan from Virgin Money. His lawyer has advised him of a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?
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 Virgin Money 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 Virgin Money conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
Just acquired a detached house in South Petherton , how long will it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing the transfer to my name? My South Petherton conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be sure that my purchase is registered.
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in South Petherton registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry have to notify any other persons or bodies. Currently approximately three quarters of such applications are fully addressed within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted delays. Registration occurs once the buyer has moved in to the property so an expedited registration is not usually primary concern yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in South Petherton I like with a park and railway links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in South Petherton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in South Petherton. Before I get started I want to be sure as to the remaining lease term.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in South Petherton - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars 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.
