Our god-son is about to exchange on a house that has just been built in Temple with a mortgage from Aldermore. His lawyer has advised him of a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. This document is news to me - what is it and who needs sight of it?

The document is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Aldermore conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when asked. 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 Aldermore conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Should my conveyancer be making enquiries about flooding as part of the conveyancing in Temple.

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for conveyancers conducting conveyancing in Temple. There are those who purchase a house in Temple, fully aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical destruction, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, suitable building insurance, or sell the premises. There are steps that can be taken during the course of a house purchase to forewarn the purchaser.

Lawyers are not qualified to give advice on flood risk, but there are a number of searches that may be carried out by the purchaser or by their lawyers which will figure out the risks in Temple. The standard information supplied to a purchaser’s lawyer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) incorporates a usual inquiry of the owner to determine whether the premises has ever been flooded. In the event that flooding has previously occurred which is not disclosed by the owner, then a purchaser could commence a claim for damages as a result of such an inaccurate response. A purchaser’s lawyers may also carry out an enviro report. This will reveal if there is any known flood risk. If so, additional investigations should be carried out.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a quick, chain free conveyancing. Temple is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Temple are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Temple you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Temple may determine 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 residence.
