Various web forums that I have visited warn that are the primary cause of obstruction in Clent conveyancing transactions. Is there any truth in this?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released determinations of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature within the common causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Local searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Clent.
I have a renovated Victorian property in Clent. Conveyancing practitioner represented me and Virgin Money. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold under the matching address. Is it worth asking Virgin Money to clarify?
You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Clent and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also question the position with your conveyancing solicitor who completed the work.
Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Clent ahead of retaining lawyers. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. Our surveyor has said that some banks will refuse to give a mortgage on a flying freehold property.
It varies from the lender to lender. Santander has different instructions for example to Birmingham Midshires. If you e-mail us we can check with the appropriate lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Clent. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Clent. Before diving in I require certainty as to the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is registered - and most are in Clent - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
I own a basement flat in Clent, conveyancing formalities finalised in 1999. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Comparable properties in Clent with over 90 years remaining are worth £202,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £60 invoiced annually. The lease ceases on 21st October 2082
With only 57 years unexpired the likely cost is going to range between £28,500 and £33,000 plus professional fees.
The figure above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information before getting professional advice.
Looking for a conveyancing solicitor in Clent. I thought I had one sorted but he's not on the panel for Nottingham.
