My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Felinheli. Conveyancing is needed. What is next?

Given that you have now legally committed yourself to purchase you now have to retain a conveyancing practitioner as a matter of priority as you are faced with a fast approaching deadline in which to complete the property. An auction property will have a bespoke legal set of papers. This will likely include the copy title deeds, local authority and drainage searches. Where you are dealing with leasehold premises the auction papers should provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and other conveyancing documentation relating to a leasehold property. You need to give this to your appointed conveyancing solicitor ASAP. Do make sure that that you have the requisite funding in order to complete on the on the contractual date .

I am planning to move property in April. Will my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. As an aside, can you recommend a removal company in Felinheli. Conveyancing solicitor was organised prior to coming across this site.

On the day of completion you will need to collect the keys from your selling agent but this should only be done once the vendors conveyancers confirm to the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be collected. After that you will need to inform the removal company that you are ready to move in. We are not in a position to suggest a particular removal company but can help you find a conveyancing in Felinheli or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Felinheli.

We previously chose conveyancing lawyers located in Felinheli on the Coventry BS solicitor approved list. They have just invoiced me a separate fee for handling the Coventry BS mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by Coventry BS?

As unfair as it may seem, as long as it’s in their Terms of Engagement or estimate then yes your solicitor may levy a fee for this. This charge is not dictated by Coventry BS but by your Felinheli lawyer. Numerous firms on the Coventry BS panel will quote an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.

I am buying a new build house in Felinheli with a mortgage from Yorkshire Building Society. The developers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The estate agent suggested that I not inform my solicitor about the extras as it may put at risk my mortgage with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.

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%.

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 am looking for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one close by in Felinheli I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Felinheli suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

If you require a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

What tools are available to identify a Felinheli solicitor on the Aldermore conveyancing panel? I drive a motor bike and am willing to travel upto 20miles to meet the lawyer.

You can use the facility on this website. Please pick a lender and your location and you will see a number of Felinheli conveyancing lawyers locally. We have detailed some Felinheli conveyancing firms at the bottom of this page and you can ring them to see if they are on the Aldermore member panel

I am looking at a two maisonettes in Felinheli which have in the region of forty five years remaining on the lease term. should I be concerned?

A lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the property for a prescribed time frame. As the lease shortens the saleability of the lease reduces and results in it becoming more costly to extend the lease. This is why it is often a good idea to increase the term of the lease. More often than not it is difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage lenders may be unwilling to lend money on such properties. Lease extension can be a protracted process. We recommend you seek professional help from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this arena.

I acquired a 1st floor flat in Felinheli, conveyancing having been completed half a dozen years ago. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Equivalent flats in Felinheli with over 90 years remaining are worth £265,000. The ground rent is £50 per annum. The lease ceases on 21st October 2102

You have 76 years left to run the likely cost is going to span between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as costs.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive investigations. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be additional issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
