New property forms
Inside Conveyancing covers the news we have updated our TA7 leasehold information form and our TA13 completion information and undertakings form.
Law Society President Lubna Shuja said: “The LPE1 and TA7 forms have been amended as part of efforts to ensure that those who want to buy or re-mortgage flats affected by building safety issues can access mortgage finance.
