My god-son is in the process of securing a newly built flat in Dalston with a mortgage from Yorkshire BS. His solicitor has said that there is a delay in completing the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. This document is news to me - what is it and who needs sight of it?

The form is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the valuer when asked. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Have purchased a a terraced house in Dalston , how long should it take for the Land Registry to register my ownership? My Dalston conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to check that my name is registered.

There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Dalston registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies.

Registration is effected once the buyer has moved in to the property therefore an expedited registration is not usually primary concern yet where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor can contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
