Just acquired a detached house in Willen , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Willen conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be sure that my name is recorded.
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Willen registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry need to notify any third parties. At present approximately 80% of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to extensive delays. Registration occurs once the purchaser is living at the premises therefore 'speed' is not always primary concern yet where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Willen with a loan from Birmingham Midshires. The sellers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep advised me not to tell my conveyancer about this extras as it will affect my loan with the bank. Is this normal?.
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.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one near me in Willen I like with a park and transport links nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Willen suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

I wish to let out my leasehold flat in Willen. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Is permission from the freeholder required?
Some leases for properties in Willen do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting permission.
