I am not in a position to travel far from Audlem. Can you please clarify why all Audlem lawyers are not on all lender panels?
As unjust as it may appear for lenders to restrict who can represent them, from the public’s or conveyancer’s standpoint, the the contrary view is that banks are becoming ever more anxious and regard it imperative to protect them from mortgage fraud. As a consequence of this concern lenders are limiting their conveyancing panel to a size that they are happy to control.

Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Audlem
-
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? Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme.
How can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my commercial premises in Audlem and how can your lawyers assist?
The particular law that you refer to provides security of tenure to business tenants, granting the a statutory right to apply to court for a continuation of occupancy at the end of the lease term. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complex. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing firms who use the act to your advantage and help with commercial conveyancing in Audlem
My wife and I purchased a leasehold house in Audlem. Conveyancing and The Mortgage Works mortgage went though with no issue. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. It included a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1997. The conveyancing solicitor in Audlem who acted for me is not around. Do I pay?
First make enquiries of HMLR to make sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is indeed the new freeholder. It is not necessary to instruct a Audlem conveyancing practitioner to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for less than a fiver. Rest assured that in any event, even if this is the legitimate landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.
