My father informed me that in buying a property in Wrington there could be a number of restrictions preventing external changes to a property. Is this right?

There are a number of properties in Wrington which have some sort of restriction or requirement of consent to carry out external alterations. Part of the conveyancing in Wrington should determine what restrictions are applicable and advising you as part of a ROT that should be sent to you.

We were going to get a DIP from Co-operative this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Co-operative recommend any Wrington solicitors on the Co-operative conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?

You will need to appoint Wrington solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Co-operative conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Co-operative through the process.

I had an offer accepted on a property in Wrington on 20/3/2024, valuation was booked 2 days later, all came back fine. Property lawyer appointed, so all that was missing was my mortgage offer. Having made daily calls to Yorkshire BS and chasing them on my offer, I have now been told that my offer will not be issued unless the lawyer is on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. Can the lender hold off the offer?

A lender would not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Yorkshire BS to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

I have justbecome aware that Action Conveyancing have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Wrington for a purchase of a freehold house 10 months ago. How can I check that my home is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?

The quickest way to check if the property is in your name, 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 Wrington conveyancing specialists.

I am purchasing a new build house in Wrington with a mortgage from Barclays . The sellers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The estate agent advised me not inform my solicitor about the extras as it will adversely affect my loan with Barclays . 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 opted to have a survey done on a property in Wrington ahead of appointing lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. My surveyor has said that some mortgage companies tend not issue a mortgage on this type of property.
