Completed the sale of my flat in Watlington last April yet the purchaser is whats apping daily complaining that his solicitor needs to hear from myconveyancer. What are the post completion sale formalities now that I have sold?
Following your sale your conveyancer is committed to deliver the transfer deeds and all supplemental paperwork to the purchaser's conveyancer. Where relevant, your conveyancer should also evidence that the home loan has been paid off to the purchasers solicitors. There is unlikely to be post completion tasks just for conveyancing in Watlington.
I have todayfound out that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Watlington for a purchase of a freehold house 9 months ago. How can I check that the property is registered correctly in the name of the former proprietor?
The quickest way to check if the premises is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Watlington conveyancing specialists.
I am buying a new build house in Watlington with a loan from Platform Home Loans Ltd. The sellers would not move on the price so I negotiated £7000 of extras instead. The sale representative told me not inform my solicitor about this side-deal as it will jeopardize my loan with the bank. Should I keep quiet?.
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 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.
