Completed the sale of my flat in Enfield last November but the buyer keeps e-mailing me to moan that his conveyancer needs to hear from mysolicitor. What are the post completion sale legalities following completion?

Following your house sale your solicitor is duty bound to send the transfer documentation and all supplemental paperwork to the purchaser's conveyancer. Where relevant, your lawyer must also send confirmation that the mortgage has been paid off to the purchasers lawyers. There are no post completion steps unique to conveyancing in Enfield.

I have been told that property searches are the primary cause of stalling in Enfield house deals. Is this right?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) has noted the determinations of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature amongst the top 10 causes of delays during the legal transfer of property. Searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Enfield.

I have recentlybecome aware that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Enfield for a purchase of a leasehold flat 12 months ago. How can I check that the property is registered correctly in the name of the previous owner?

The easiest way to see if the premises is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Enfield conveyancing specialists.

We expect to complete the disposal of our £150,000 apartment in Enfield next Thursday. The landlords agents has quoted £300 for Certificate of Compliance, insurance certificate and 3 years service charge statements. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge such fees for a flat conveyance in Enfield?

Enfield conveyancing on leasehold maisonettes more often than not requires the buyer’s solicitor submitting questions for the landlord to address. Although the landlord is under no legal obligation to respond to such questions most will be willing to do so. They are entitled to charge a reasonable charge for responding to enquiries or supplying documentation. There is no set fee. The average costs for the paperwork that you are referring to is £350, in some situations it is above £800. The administration charge demanded by the landlord must be accompanied by a summary of entitlements and obligations in respect of administration fees, without which the invoice is technically not due. Reality however dictates that one has little option but to pay whatever is requested of you if you want to exchange contracts with the buyer.

I have had difficulty in trying to reach an agreement for a lease extension in Enfield. Can this matter be resolved via the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal?

if there is a missing landlord or if there is disagreement about the premium for a lease extension, under the relevant statutes it is possible to make an application to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to calculate the amount due.

An example of a Lease Extension case for a Enfield flat is First Floor Flat 109 Lyndhurst Road in May 2010. Following a vesting order by Edmonton County Court on 29th October 2009 the Tribunal decided on a figure of £5,012 for a lease extension. This case was in relation to 1 flat. The unexpired residue of the current lease was 81.79 years.
