I purchased a freehold premises in Sneyd Green but nevertheless charged rent, why is this and what is this?
It is rare for properties in Sneyd Green and has limited impact for conveyancing in Sneyd Green but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.
Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges have existed for many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the creation of new rentcharges post 1977.
Old rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 is to be extinguished.
I'm purchasing a new build house in Sneyd Green with the aid of help to buy. The sellers would not reduce the price so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The estate agent suggested that I not to tell my conveyancer about this extras as it may impact 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.
We're FTB’s - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent informed us that the seller will only go ahead if we appoint the agent's recommended solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a high street conveyancer used to conveyancing in Sneyd Green
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this request. If they require ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Try to communicate with the sellers directly and explain that (a)you are motivated buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you are going to appoint your preferred Sneyd Green conveyancing lawyers - rather thanthose that will earn their estate agent a kickback or achieve conveyancing figures demanded by corporate headquarters.
