I am nearing the developer’s deadline to exchange contracts and I have no desire to delay the conveyancing. is my lawyer playing by the book?

You should not exchange unless you have been advised to do so by your lawyer. A precondition to being on a mortgage company panel is to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook specifications.

Your property agent will need to be informed of your conveyancer's details (be sure the lawyers are on the bank’s approved list). Telephone Skipton or your broker and finish off any outstanding documentation. Skipton will appoint a valuer who will get in contact with the estate agent or seller to arrange an appointment. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes approximately a fortnight to receive the mortgage offer. Skipton will send the offer to you and your property lawyers.

It has been three months since my purchase conveyancing in Wormwood Scrubs took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Wormwood Scrubs with a mortgage from Birmingham Midshires. The builders would not reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The sale representative suggested that I not disclose to my conveyancer about the extras as it could put at risk my mortgage 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%.
