Can you help - my lawyer says that lack of right of way insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the level of cover for South Ruislip conveyancing?
The right level of lack of right of way indemnity insurance should be dictated by who who your lender is. It would differ for example between Barclays and Bank of Scotland. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to members of the public take out such insurances.
My partner and I have arranged the release of further funds on our home loan from Leeds Building Society as we intend to conduct a loft conversion to our home in South Ruislip. Do we need to appoint a nearby South Ruislip solicitor on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel to deal with the legals?
Leeds Building Society don't usually appoint firms on their conveyancing panel to deal with such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Leeds Building Society list.
My wife and I are in the process of looking at houses in South Ruislip and I am now considering a potential offer. Should I already have a property lawyer appointed at this point? I am planning to take a home loan with Skipton.
It would be sensible to start your search sooner rather than later. After you have chosen your lawyer and once your offer is accepted you can instruct them to work for you and forward their details on to the selling agent. As you are getting a mortgage with Skipton, make sure you remember to check that your lawyer is on the Skipton conveyancing panel.
Just bought a terraced house in South Ruislip , how long should it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my ownership? My South Ruislip conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be sure the post completion formalities are addressed.
As far as conveyancing in South Ruislip registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies. At present roughly three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be extensive delays. Registration is effected after the buyer is living at the premises so 'speed' is not usually primary concern yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor could speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I'm purchasing a new build house in South Ruislip with a mortgage from Barclays Direct. The sellers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep told me not to tell my lawyer about the side-deal as it could adversely affect my loan with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.
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 issue on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. South Ruislip is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in South Ruislip are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in South Ruislip you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in South Ruislip may decide 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 premises.
