We previously selected solicitors located in Stroud Green on the TSB solicitor panel. They are now charging me a further sum for dealing with the TSB mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by TSB?
As unfair as it may appear, as long as it’s in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your property lawyer is entitled to charge a fee for this. The charge is not set by TSB but by your Stroud Green conveyancer. Numerous firms on the TSB panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.
I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Stroud Green off the council. I have a mortgage agreed with Aldermore. 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 have 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 Aldermore, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Aldermore conveyancing panel.
Planning on purchasing a house in Stroud Green. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Building Society if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the TSB conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Stroud Green property lawyer is on the TSB conveyancing panel.
Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my house can not be found. The conveyancers who did the conveyancing in Stroud Green 5 years ago have long since closed. What are my options?
As long as the title is registered the details of your ownership will be documented by the Land Registry with a Title Number. It is easy to carry out a search at the Land Registry, locate your property and obtain up to date copies of the property title for less than a fiver. If the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will also normally retain a certified duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be obtained for a small fee.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Stroud Green with a loan from TSB. The sellers would not reduce the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The property agent suggested that I not reveal to my solicitor about this deal as it will jeopardize my loan with the lender. Is this normal?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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 have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and found one round the corner in Stroud Green I like with a park and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Stroud Green for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage that many years will be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
