I today plan to offer on a house that seems to be perfect, at a great figure which is making it all the more appealing. I have since been informed that the title is leasehold rather than freehold. I am assuming that there are particular concerns buying a house with a leasehold title in Colindale. Conveyancing lawyers have are about to be instructed. Will they explain the issues?

Most houses in Colindale are freehold and not leasehold. In this scenario it’s worth having a local conveyancer used to dealing with such properties who can assist with the conveyancing process. We note that you are buying in Colindale in which case you should be looking for a Colindale conveyancing practitioner and check that they are used to advising on leasehold houses. First you will need to check the number of years remaining. Being a tenant you will not be at liberty to do whatever you want to the property. The lease will likely included provisions for example requiring the landlord’sconsent to conduct alterations. You may also be required to pay a maintenance charge towards the maintenance of the communal areas where the house is part of an estate. Your lawyer should appraise you on the various issues.

You certainly can. We can put you in touch with a Colindale conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Lease Extension matter before the tribunal for a Colindale premises is 27B Hillside in February 2010. the resulting premium, all other aspects of the valuation having been agreed between the parties was set at £8,250 This case affected 1 flat. The unexpired term was 70.25 years.

I have selected a Colindale conveyancing solicitor for our house purchase (novice purchasers) and have noticed in the engagement letter that they are not governed by the FCA. Need I be worried or is that the norm with lawyer?

We can't see why they should be. Most conveyancing practitioner don't lend money. They will be regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, who dictate strict laws in relation to funds deposited by them.
