I am in the throes of transferring my existing standard home loan to a BTL Clydesdale mortgage. I was told by my mortgage that I need a solicitor for this. I spoke to my past Stokenchurch conveyancing practitioner who dealt with the legals when I initially bought the house. The quote issued of £575 plus disbursements is an eye-watering amount to do this as its a remortgage than a sale or purchase.

The quote is fractionally on the high side. Where you are willing to spend time contrasting prices you could get the conveyancing a bit cheaper by say £100 plus VAT. That being said, assuming were pleased with the assistance the firm offered you couldlive to regret choosing an a cheaper lawyer. If is important to be sure that the solicitor can also act for Clydesdale.

Forgive me if this question is silly but I am unexperienced as a first time buyer of a garden flat in Stokenchurch. Do I collect the keys to the property on the completion date from my lawyer? If so, I will find a local conveyancing solicitor in Stokenchurch?

On the day of completion you will not be required to go to the conveyancers office in Stokenchurch. Your solicitors will electronically transfer the purchase money to the owner’s conveyancers, and once they have received this, you should be able to receive the keys from the Estate Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.

I am purchasing my first flat in Stokenchurch with the aid of help to buy. The sellers would not reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The sale representative advised me not reveal to my solicitor about the extras as it would adversely affect my loan with Nationwide Building Society. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

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 own a leasehold flat in Stokenchurch. Conveyancing was finalised in 2010. I have been told that I mustn’t let the lease length get too short. Is this correct?

Stokenchurch domestic long term leases are for a set term - normally just under one hundred years when they started. However many appartments in Stokenchurch were constructed or converted in the 70’s80’s and so these leases now have under eighty years unexpired. That may seem like plenty of time however Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage companies tend to require leases to have at least 75 years left to adequate security. Accordingly when you come to sell the property you will need a lease extension if you are nearing 75 years. To maximise your property value you should be considering whether to extend your lease well in advance of selling the property. There are also strong financial reasons to taking action before the lease reaches even eighty years as when the lease is below 80 years the amount to be paid to extend starts to increase.
