Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering regulations require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the identification documents of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing business. The Client Care letter that you are required to sign should stipulate this. Your lender will also require certain documents to be checked. Where you refuse to hand over identification documents, your lawyer can not take you on as a client.
How does conveyancing in New Invention differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in New Invention come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because builders in New Invention 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 conveyancers 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in New Invention or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in New Invention I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it only has 49 years on the lease. There is not much else in New Invention in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
Me and my wife are selling a New Invention ground floor flat we inherited some years ago in 2010. I have over a decades worth of conveyancing knowledge and, although retired, intend to undertake my own legal work. The buyer's lawyer has informed me that their Lenders will not allow you to do your own conveyancing as they require the funds to be sent to a solicitor's bank account.
Lending instructions to conveyancers from all mainstream lenders state that If the seller does not have legal representation the borrower's lawyers should check whether the lender needs to be told so that a decision can be reached if they are willing to move forward.
