How does conveyancing in Cricklewood differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Cricklewood contact us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Cricklewood tend to acquire the site, 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 conveyancers 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Cricklewood or who has acted in the same development.

Should I be wary that estate agents that I am dealing with are suggesting a factory type conveyancing firm rather than a High Street Cricklewood conveyancing company?

As with many service providers, often input from family and friends can be worth their weight in gold. But there are numerous players in a conveyancing matter; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks might all recommend lawyers to appoint. On occasion these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as experts in their field, but occasionally there might be a financial incentive behind the recommendation. You have the right to appoint your preferred conveyancer. However, bear in mind that most mortgage providers operate an approved list of conveyancers you have to use for the mortgage aspect of your house move.

I need to appoint a conveyancing solicitor for some conveyancing in Cricklewood. I have land on a site which appears to be the ideal answer If there is a chance to get all formalities completed via web that would be ideal. Should I be concerned? What are the potential pitfalls?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?

I am tempted by the attractive purchase price for a two apartments in Cricklewood both have approximately 50 years unexpired on the lease term. should I be concerned?

There is no doubt about it. A leasehold flat in Cricklewood is a deteriorating asset as a result of the shortening lease. The closer the lease gets to its expiry date, the more it reduces the marketability of the property. For most buyers and lenders, leases with under 75 years become less and less attractive. On a more positive note, leaseholders can extend their leases by serving a Section 42 Notice. One stipulation is that they must have owned the premises for two years (unlike a Section 13 notice for purchasing the freehold, when leaseholders can participate from day one of ownership). When successful, they will have the right to an extension of 90 years to the current term and ground rent is effectively reduced to zero. Before moving forward with a purchase of a property with a short lease term remaining you should talk to a solicitor specialising in lease extensions and leasehold enfranchisement. We are are happy to put you in touch with Cricklewood conveyancing experts who will explain the options available to you during an initial telephone conversation free of charge. More often than not it is possible to negotiate informally with the freeholder to extend the lease. You may find he or she is happy to negotiate informally and willing to consider your offer straight off, without having to involve anyone else. This will save you time and money and it could help you reach a lower price on the lease. You need to ensure that any new terms represent good long-term value compared with the standard benefits of the Section 42 Notice and that onerous clauses are not inserted into any redrafting of the lease.

I inherited a first floor flat in Cricklewood. Given that I can not reach agreement with the landlord, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal make a decision on the premium due for the purchase of the freehold?

in cases where there is a missing freeholder or if there is disagreement about the premium for a lease extension, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 it is possible to make an application to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to determine the price.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement case for a Cricklewood premises is 73 and 73a St. Pauls Avenue in October 2013. the Tribunal held in accordance with section32 and Schedule 6 of the Leasehold Reform,Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 that the premium for the enfranchisement was fifty three thousand three hundred and sixty one pounds (£53,361.00) This case related to 2 flats. The remaining number of years on the lease was 64.61 and 67.18.
