My god-son is in the process of securing a house that has just been built in Stockton Heath with a mortgage from HSBC. His lawyer has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?

The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the HSBC 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 HSBC conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Is there a search tool that I can use to check that the solicitor handling my conveyancing in Stockton Heath is on the lender’sapproved panel? I am looking to avoid the situation of having one lawyer for me and one for National Westminster Bank thus spending £175.00 in additional conveyancing invoice.

Feel free to make the most of the search tool on this web page. Please choose the mortgage company and type ‘Stockton Heath’ or your location and you will discover a number of lawyer offices in Stockton Heath or by proximity to you.

I am close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our property in Stockton Heath and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers used a national conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Stockton Heath. Having lived in Stockton Heath for three years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. Are they able to advise? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Stockton Heath I like with open areas and transport links nearby, however it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Stockton Heath for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Stockton Heath. Before I set the wheels in motion I would like to find out the number of years remaining on the lease.

If the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Stockton Heath - 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.

I bought a split level flat in Stockton Heath, conveyancing having been completed in 2006. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Equivalent properties in Stockton Heath with a long lease are worth £185,000. The ground rent is £65 levied per year. The lease terminates on 21st October 2086

You have 60 years unexpired the likely cost is going to be between £20,000 and £23,000 as well as legals.

The figure above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of comprehensive investigations. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action placing reliance on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
