Last May we completed a house move in Wythenshawe. We have noticed several issues with the property which we suspect were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Is there anything we can do? What searches should? have been ordered for conveyancing in Wythenshawe?

It is not clear from the question as what problems have arisen and if they are unique to conveyancing in Wythenshawe. Conveyancing searches and due diligence initiated as part of the buying process are carried out to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a property owner completes a questionnaire known as a SPIF. If the information ends up being incorrect, you may have a misrepresentation claim against the seller for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Wythenshawe.

We are purchasing a property in Wythenshawe. I might seem paranoid but how we can trust a lawyer? At some point we will need to deposit our life savings into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our deposit?

Be assured that all money in a Solicitors client account is 100% safe, and even if your Solicitor ran off with it, the Law Society would reimburse you fully.

We are planning to move house in August. Should my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Wythenshawe. Conveyancing firm was organised before I stumbled across this site.

On the day of completion you can collect the keys from the property agent but this should only happen when the previous owners lawyers confirm to the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be passed over. You should advise the removal company that they can start moving you in. We are not in a position to recommend a particular removal organisation but can help you choose a residential property solicitor in Wythenshawe or a legal practice with expertise in conveyancing in Wythenshawe.

We are getting a further advance on our mortgage from Nationwide as we want to conduct renovations to our house in Wythenshawe. Do we need to choose a nearby Wythenshawe solicitor on the Nationwide conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?

Nationwide would not normally instruct firms on their approved list of lawyers to handle the formalities. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Nationwide conveyancing panel.

Have completed on a a detached house in Wythenshawe , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Wythenshawe conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to check the registration is addressed.

As far as conveyancing in Wythenshawe is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry communicate with any third persons or bodies. As of today approximately three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Historically registration takes place once the buyer is living at the premises therefore 'speed' is not typically primary concern but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

I'm purchasing a new build house in Wythenshawe with the aid of help to buy. The sellers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative told me not to tell my conveyancer about the extras as it would affect my mortgage with Virgin Money. Should I keep quiet?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder 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.
