I am buying a property for cash in Acton. I have resided for the last twelve years in Acton. Conveyancing searches are expensive. As I know the road and vicinity very well must I have all the conveyancing searches?

If you not getting a home loan, then all but one or two of the Acton conveyancing searches are at your discretion. Your solicitor will 'advise', perhaps strongly, that you should have searches completed, but she is duty bound to take that path of guidance. Do consider; if you are intend to sell the house in the future, it will likely be be of interest to your future purchaser what the searches determine. On occasion premises with apparent issues can still throw up unpredicted search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Acton will be able to give you some helpful advice here.

Do I need to visit the offices of the solicitor to execute the mortgage deed? If so, I will appoint a lawyer who conducts conveyancing in Acton so that I can pop in to their offices when needed.

Most approved lawyers for mortgage companies undertake their work via the post, internet or over phone calls. This enables them to conduct the legal work for your home move no matter where you live in England or Wales. However you can see if you have the option of visiting the offices of your conveyancing lawyer if just in case this is required.

I am buying my first flat in Acton with the aid of help to buy. The sellers would not budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative told me not inform my lawyer about this extras as it will affect my loan with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.

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.

HM Land Registry as a matter of law obliged to disclose price paid information on the official title for residential properties countrywide including homes in Acton. The Title Register is an open document, so HMLR would be breaking the law if they failed to allow access to the register.

You can ask HMLR to withhold the amount paid entry however the answer would be in the negative.
