My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Harold Park. I I am struggling to find out if they are accepted on the Halifax conveyancing panel. Can you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?
The first thing to do is phone your conveyancer and ask them if they can act for the lender. Otherwise please call Halifax who may be able to help.
My solicitor has informed me that missing deeds insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Harold Park?
The right level of missing deeds indemnity insurance depends on your lender. It would differ for example between Santander and Skipton Building Society. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to members of the public take out such policies.
When it comes to lenders such as Co-operative, do Harold Park property lawyers face an annual charge to be on the conveyancing panel?
We are not aware of any bank fees to register on their panel, although some do charge an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.
After what feels like an age I have had an offer on a flat in Harold Park agreed to, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on on an apartment, however it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties booked. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Harold Park. What should be my next step? At what stage do I apply for the mortgage with Nationwide?
It is understandable to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (home loan application is approx £1k, then valuation, Harold Park conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you must ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. Concerning the subsequent steps this very much depends on the uniqueness of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a rising market many home buyers would apply for a home loan with Nationwide and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their lawyer to move forward with the conveyancing in Harold Park.
I'm buying a new build house in Harold Park with a mortgage from Bank of Scotland. The sellers refused to budge the price so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The estate agent suggested that I not to tell my solicitor about this side-deal as it would adversely affect 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%.
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.
