The search should provide data on, amongst other things, details on planning applications relevant to the premises (whether granted or refused), building control history, any enforcement action, restrictions on permitted development, nearby road schemes, contaminated land and radon gas; in all a total of thirteen subject areas.

I purchased my flat on 16 October and the transaction details is yet to be on the land registry website. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Walton expressed confidence that it should be concluded in a couple of weeks. Are titles in Walton particularly slow to register?

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Walton registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry have to notify any interested persons or bodies. Currently approximately 80% of submission are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration is effected after the new owner is living at the property so an expedited registration is not always primary concern but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I'm purchasing my first flat in Walton with a mortgage from Accord Mortgages Ltd. The builders would not budge the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The house builders rep told me not disclose to my lawyer about the side-deal as it will impact my loan with the bank. 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 decided to have a survey completed on a house in Walton prior to instructing conveyancers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold element to the house. The surveyor advised that some banks tend not give a loan on a flying freehold house.
