We are purchasing our first home. Our conveyancing practitioner has e-mailedto ask if we want to take out additional conveyancing searches. Unfortunately we are clueless as to what's appropriate for conveyancing in Tottenham Green

The quantity and type of Tottenham Green conveyancing searches should be dictated primarily on the property, the location, the possibility of any of these risks, your knowledge of the region and risks, your general attitude to risk. What matters is that you properly appreciate what information each search could supply. You may then decide if you personally think you need that information. Should you be uncertain, ask the conveyancing practitioner to recommend.

What happens if my solicitor is suspended from the Yorkshire BS Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Tottenham Green?

First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

I am buying a new build house in Tottenham Green with a loan from National Westminster Bank. The developers refused to budge the amount so I negotiated 6k of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative advised me not disclose to my lawyer about this extras as it would jeopardize my loan with National Westminster Bank. 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.

My wife and I may need to let out our Tottenham Green ground floor flat for a while due to a new job. We instructed a Tottenham Green conveyancing firm in 2002 but they have closed and we did not think at the time get any guidance as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?

A lease dictates relations between the freeholder and you the flat owner; in particular, it will indicate if subletting is banned, or permitted but only subject to certain caveats. The accepted inference is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. The majority of leases in Tottenham Green do not contain strict prohibition on subletting – such a clause would adversely affect the market value the property. In most cases there is simply a requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly supplying a duplicate of the sublease.
