My wife and I may need to let out our Breaston 1st floor flat for a while due to taking a sabbatical. We used a Breaston conveyancing firm in 2001 but they have closed and we did not have the foresight to get any guidance as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?

Notwithstanding that your previous Breaston conveyancing lawyer is not around you can review your lease to check if it allows you to sublet the premises. The accepted inference is that if the lease is non-specific, subletting is permitted. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you are obliged to seek consent from your landlord or other appropriate person in advance of subletting. The net result is you not allowed to sublet without prior permission. The consent is not allowed to be unreasonably refused ore delayed. If the lease prohibits you from subletting the property you should ask your landlord if they are willing to waive this restriction.

I purchased a 1 bedroom flat in Breaston, conveyancing was carried out January 2006. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Equivalent flats in Breaston with an extended lease are worth £195,000. The ground rent is £45 per annum. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2088

You have 63 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £16,200 and £18,600 plus costs.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed investigations. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be additional issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.

The conveyancers carrying out our conveyancing in Breaston has forwarded papers to review that indicate that the land is unregistered with epitome documents. How can it be that the property not registred at HM Land Regsitry?

Although most properties in Breaston are now registered with HMLR there are still a few that remain unregistered. Any property in Breaston that has been remortgaged since the late 1980’s will have been registered at the HM Land Registry under the compulsory ‘first registration’ scheme. However, if a Breaston property has not changed hands in that time then it’s likely the old fashioned title deeds will be the only evidence of ownership.Many Breaston conveyancing practitioners will be capable of dealing with such matters but in the event that uncertainty exists the usual proposition presently is for the seller to address the registration formalities first and thereafter deal with the sale conveyance - this will have a domino effect to result in a significant delay.
