Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our home are lost. The conveyancers who dealt with the conveyancing in Brent Park 4 years ago no longer exist. What do I do?
You no longer need to have the physical original deeds to prove you own the land or premises, given that the Land Registry have everything they need in a digital format.
How does conveyancing in Brent Park differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Brent Park come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because builders in Brent Park tend to acquire the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Brent Park or who has acted in the same development.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Brent Park is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Brent Park are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Brent Park you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Brent Park may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
I was advised by two or three local property agents in Brent Park to locate a solicitor on your site. Is there a financial inducement for Estate Agents to recommend your services over another?
We refuse to make any commission for directing people in our direction. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission because a client could think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
