My partner’s mother is a property lawyer. I am hopeful that I will be offered preferential pricing for conveyancing, However if that does not come materialise, what kind of costs would I typically be looking at for conveyancing in Rogiet?
It’s advisable to obtain 3 or more like-for-like conveyancing quotes. Do use our comparison tool on this site. Whilst quotes will be different but the service one can expect are distinct between solicitors as is the case with most professions.
My god-son is in the process of securing a newly built flat in Rogiet with a mortgage from Coventry BS. His lawyer has advised him of a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. This document is news to me - what is it and who needs sight of it?
The document is intended to provide information to the main parties involved in the transaction. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel as a standard part of the process, and to the surveyor when asked. The developer will be required to start the process by downloading the form and completing it. The form will therefore need to be available for the valuer at the time of his or her site visit. The form should be sent to the Coventry BS conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.
I am buying my first flat in Rogiet with the aid of help to buy. The developers would not move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead. The property agent advised me not inform my solicitor about the side-deal as it would adversely affect my mortgage with The Royal Bank of Scotland. 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.

The lawyers carrying out our conveyancing in Rogiet has sent papers to review that show the land is unregistered with epitome documents. Why is the property not registred at HM Land Regsitry?
It is a rare occurrence indeed to find premises in Rogiet not to be registered. An 'epitome' is basically a dossier of photocopies of documents affecting an unregistered title. Plenty of Rogiet conveyancing practitioners will be capable of dealing with this type of conveyancing but where uncertainty prevails the standard advice these days seems to be for the vendor’s solicitor to register it first and thereafter deal with the transfer to the buyer - this will predictably result in a significant delay.
