About to purchase a new build flat in Hilton. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Here are examples of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Hilton

Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Hilton I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Hilton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

If you need a home loan that many years will be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

I was advised by numerous selling agents in Hilton to locate a conveyancer using your seach tool. Is there a financial upside for Estate Agents to promote your site over and above alternative conveyancing organisations?

We refuse to give any commission for sending work in our direction. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission as home movers will think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

Much to my surprise my conveyancing solicitor in Hilton is asking me for identification documents stating that this forms part of his retainer as a solicitor on the lender Solicitor panel. Is this right?

Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules require Hilton conveyancing solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the identity of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing business. The Client Care letter that you need to sign will no doubt confirm this. Your lawyer is right that the bank also require certain documents to be viewed. If a you refuse to provide ID verification documents, your conveyancer would not be able to accept instructions from you. Your lawyer also has obligations to obtain certain documents in accordance with the bank's UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements
