Is it the case that all St Anns solicitors on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel are governed by the SRA?

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Clydesdale approved list of solicitors they would need to be governed by the SRA. Some mortgage companies do allow licenced conveyancers on their panel and in that case the practice would be governed by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.

I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in St Anns off the council. I have a mortgage offer with RBS. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with RBS, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the RBS conveyancing panel.

Me and my brother purchased a 4 bedroom Victorian property in St Anns. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and Bank of Ireland. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the exact same property. Is it worth asking Bank of Ireland to clarify?

You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in St Anns and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also enquire as to the situation with the conveyancing lawyer who conducted the conveyancing.

I am buying a new build house in St Anns benefiting from help to buy. The developers would not reduce the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The property agent suggested that I not to tell my conveyancer about this extras 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.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one near me in St Anns I like with open areas and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in St Anns for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a home loan that many years will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
