Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Crediton

Our son-in-law is buying a house that has just been built in Crediton with a home loan from Virgin Money. His solicitor has said that there is a delay in receiving the ‘Disclosure of Incentive Form’. Who needs to receive the form?

The document is intended to provide information to the main parties engaged in the purchase. Therefore, it will be provided to your son’s lawyer who should be on the Virgin Money 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 Virgin Money conveyancing panel solicitor as early as possible, in order to avoid any last minute delays, and no later than at exchange of contracts.

Have purchased a a terraced house in Crediton , What is the estimated time for the Land Registry to record my ownership? My Crediton conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to check that my purchase is registered.

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Crediton registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry need to notify any other parties. As of today roughly 80% of such applications are fully addressed within two weeks but some can be subject to extensive delays. Registration takes place once the purchaser has moved in to the property therefore an expedited registration is not typically an essential issue but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.

Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.

Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?
