We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to instruct their panel solicitor as I would prefer to instruct a Thurmaston based conveyancing firm?
You should check but the the probability is that appoint one of their panel solicitors if you want the "fee-free" offer. Speak to the bank and determine if they make available a monetary alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor near Thurmaston.
Just acquired a semi-detached house in Thurmaston , how long should it take for the Land Registry to record my proprietorship? My Thurmaston conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be certain the registration is addressed.
As far as conveyancing in Thurmaston is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies. Currently roughly 80% of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Registration occurs once the buyer has moved in to the property so an expedited registration is not always top priority but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Thurmaston benefiting from help to buy. The sellers would not reduce the price so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative suggested that I not to tell my solicitor about this side-deal as it would jeopardize my mortgage with TSB. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
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 UK Finance website. UK Finance 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.

Thurmaston Leasehold Conveyancing - Examples of Questions you should ask Prior to buying

Is there a share of the freehold? What prohibitions are there in the Thurmaston Lease? Is anyone aware of any major works in the planning that could increase the maintenance charges?
Should one as executor remove a deceased person's name from the title deeds for a house in Thurmaston?
If a Thurmaston property is jointly owned and one of the owners dies, their name will not immediately be removed from the Land Registry title. It is not necessary to amend the title as when it comes to a sale your conveyancer would simply be asked to supply proof as to the reason the joint owner is missing from the transfer, such as the probate documents.
With a view to making the sale conveyancing simpler for the sale of the property you may apply to have the deceased party erased from the title by applying to HM Land Registry with proof of the death. There is no land registry fee payable.
