We are purchasing a house and need a conveyancing solicitor in Yeadon who is on the Kent Reliance solicitor panel. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a conveyancing firm?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Kent Reliance . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Yeadon.
Have completed on a a terraced house in Yeadon , how long will it take for the Land Registry to register the transfer to my name? My Yeadon conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain the land registry aspects are addressed.
As far as conveyancing in Yeadon registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can vary according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry need to notify any other parties. At present approximately three quarters of such applications are completed within 12 days but occasionally there can be longer delays. Historically registration occurs after the buyer has moved in to the premises therefore registration formalities is not always primary concern yet if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I am purchasing a new build house in Yeadon with a loan from Godiva Mortgages Ltd. The sellers would not budge the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The house builders rep suggested that I not to tell my conveyancer about the deal as it would impact my mortgage with the lender. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
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.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Yeadon is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can give?
Flying freeholds in Yeadon are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Yeadon you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Yeadon may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
When it comes to my conveyancing in Yeadon should I be paying VAT on the following: (1) Land reg fee on purchase (2) Pre - completion search fee (3) SDLT E submission on purchase (4) Bank TT fee
(1) Land reg fee on purchase - No (2) Pre - completion search fees -No, (such conveyancing searches are HMLR ones and means £4 and possibly £2 bankruptcy per name on your mortgage) (3) SDLT E submission on your purchase - There is no VAT on Stamp Duty. However if the firm is charging a stamp duty e-submission fee as part of their services - some Yeadon conveyancers do - that will incur VAT(4) Bank transfer fee - Yes it is for the conveyancer's time in submitting the funds this way.
