Last July we completed a house move in Wilmslow. We have since encountered a number of problems with the house which we believe were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been ordered for conveyancing in Wilmslow?

The query is not clear as what problems have arisen and if they are unique to conveyancing in Wilmslow. Conveyancing searches and due diligence undertaken during the legal transfer of property are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a seller completes a form called a Seller’s Property Information Form. answers provided is inaccurate, then you may have a claim against the vendor for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Wilmslow.

If it is a flat there will be a management company in existence and the accounts of this will need to be checked and enquiries raised to ensure it is operating efficiently and that all monies due have been paid by the Seller to the company and if not ensuring that money is paid up to date or the appropriate undertakings obtained.

My conveyancer has informed me that lack of planning permission insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Wilmslow conveyancing?

I have paid off my mortgage with UBS. I assume I don't need a Wilmslow solicitor on the UBS panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Please confirm.

If you have finished paying off your UBS mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the UBS mortgage from the register. UBS, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:

  1. but are not moving to another property
  2. where UBS has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
  3. UBS has instructed the Land Registry to do so
The Land Registry will send you a letter confirming that your UBS mortgage has been paid off.

I'm buying a new build house in Wilmslow with the aid of help to buy. The sellers would not move on the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The estate agent advised me not reveal to my solicitor about this deal as it would adversely affect my mortgage with HSBC 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 UK Finance website. UK Finance form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

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.
