Me and my partner are due to complete on the purchase of a house in Monmouthshire but as a consequence of wreckage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the owner in the sum of £3k in the form of a reduction in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of a side agreement yet Skipton are not allowing this. Should they have been involved?
Any conveyancer being on the Skipton approved list is required to inform Skipton of any amendments to the purchase price. If you were to refuse your solicitor to disclose the reduction to Skipton then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Skipton and you would have to appoint a new conveyancer for your conveyancing in Monmouthshire.
three months have gone by since my purchase conveyancing in Monmouthshire took place. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the property from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
How does conveyancing in Monmouthshire differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Monmouthshire contact us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because builders in Monmouthshire typically buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Monmouthshire or who has acted in the same development.
