I purchased a freehold premises in Barton Le Clay yet invoiced for rent, why is this and what is this?

It is rare for properties in Barton Le Clay and has limited impact for conveyancing in Barton Le Clay but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges have existed for hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the creation of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.

Old rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 is to be dispensed with completely.

I have been told that property searches are the main reason for delay in Barton Le Clay house deals. Is this right?

Should you wish to telephone us we can look into this further with the appropriate lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Barton Le Clay.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Barton Le Clay. Before I get started I require certainty as to the unexpired term of the lease.

Assuming the lease is registered - and most are in Barton Le Clay - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

I invested in buying a 1st floor flat in Barton Le Clay, conveyancing was carried out in 2005. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension?

You have 57 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £26,600 and £30,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The figure above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive due diligence. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional concerns that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information before getting professional advice.
