My partner and I have lately purchased a property in Brook Green. We have since encountered a number of problems with the property which we believe were missed in the conveyancing searches. What action can we take? What searches should? have been carried out as part of conveyancing in Brook Green?
The query is not clear as to the nature of the problems and if they are relate to conveyancing in Brook Green. Conveyancing searches and due diligence undertaken during the buying process are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the legal transfer of property, a seller fills in a form called a SPIF. answers turns out to be inaccurate, you may have a misrepresentation claim against the vendor 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 Brook Green.

We had selected solicitors locally in Brook Green on the Yorkshire BS solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a further sum for dealing with the Yorkshire BS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by Yorkshire BS?
Provided it is contained in their Terms and Conditions or estimate then yes your conveyancer may levy a fee for this. The charge is not set by Yorkshire BS but by your Brook Green conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of firms on the Yorkshire BS panel will quote ’dealing with mortgage’ fee and others do not.
At last I have had an offer on an apartment in Brook Green accepted, the sellers do however have a dependent purchase. The owners have offered on a flat, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other apartments in the pipeline. I have selected a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Brook Green. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Yorkshire BS going?
It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Brook Green conveyancing search fees, etc). The first thing to do is check that your conveyancer is on the Yorkshire BS approved list. Concerning the next stages this very much depends on the uniqueness of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a hot market the majority of home buyers would apply for the mortgage with Yorkshire BS and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with searches.
I am buying a new build house in Brook Green with a loan from Coventry Building Society. The developers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The sale representative told me not disclose to my solicitor about this extras as it could put at risk my mortgage with the bank. Is this normal?.
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.
