Please help - my lawyer says that lack of right of way insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Park Hill conveyancing?

I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in January 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Kent Reliance are being pedantic. The Park Hill solicitor who is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Kent Reliance are requiring a building regulation certificate. Why do Kent Reliance have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Kent Reliance have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Kent Reliance may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

Will my solicitor be asking questions regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Park Hill.

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for solicitors carrying out conveyancing in Park Hill. Plenty of people will acquire a property in Park Hill, fully aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical damage, if a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, adequate building insurance, or dispose of the premises. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.

Lawyers are not best placed to impart advice on flood risk, however there are a number of checks that can be initiated by the purchaser or by their conveyancers which will give them a better appreciation of the risks in Park Hill. The conventional set of property information forms supplied to a purchaser’s solicitor (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) incorporates a standard inquiry of the vendor to find out if the premises has suffered from flooding. If flooding has previously occurred and is not disclosed by the vendor, then a purchaser may bring a claim for damages stemming from an incorrect reply. A buyer’s solicitors may also order an environmental report. This will higlight if there is any known flood risk. If so, additional investigations will need to be initiated.

I am looking at a couple of apartments in Park Hill both have in the region of forty five years unexpired on the leases. Do I need to be concerned?

A lease is a right to use the premises for a prescribed time frame. As a lease shortens the value of the lease reduces and results in it becoming more costly to acquire a lease extension. For this reason it is advisable to extend the lease term. Sometimes it is difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage lenders less inclined to grant a loan on properties of this type. Lease enfranchisement can be a difficult process. We recommend you get professional help from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this arena.
