My god-son is in the process of securing a newly built flat in Tilehurst with a home loan from Santander. His solicitor has advised him of a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. What is this document - I have never come across this before?

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 Santander conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer 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 Santander conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

How does conveyancing in Tilehurst differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Tilehurst contact us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because house builders in Tilehurst usually purchase the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Tilehurst or who has acted in the same development.

My cousin has recommend that I appoint his conveyancers in Tilehurst. Should I use them?

Much as we are happy to recommend a Tilehurst conveyancing lawyer it’s preferable to select a conveyancing lawyer is to have feedback from friends or relatives who have actually experience in using the conveyancer you're are thinking of instructing.

My sister purchased her house in Tilehurst 7 years past. She has got married, divorced and is now married again. She intends to sell the property next autumn. I think she will just be asked to supply copies of her marriage papers to the property lawyer however she is worried it could delay the sale of the property. Is it worth updating the Land Registry documents for the house?

You are not required to update the title for the property providing you have the proof needed to demonstrate how the name change resulted.

Any purchaser’s conveyancer will review the title entries and request evidence to establish the change of name e.g. marriage certificates.
