My husband and I may need to let out our Elmers End ground floor flat for a while due to taking a sabbatical. We instructed a Elmers End conveyancing practice in 2001 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any guidance as to whether the lease permits subletting. How do we find out?

The lease dictates relations between the freeholder and you the flat owner; in particular, it will set out if subletting is banned, or permitted but only subject to certain caveats. The rule is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. Most leases in Elmers End do not contain strict prohibition on subletting – such a provision would undoubtedly devalue the flat. In most cases there is a basic requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly sending a duplicate of the tenancy agreement.

Having spent years of negotiations we are unable to agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Elmers End. Does the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal have jurisdiction to calculate the appropriate figures?

in cases where there is a missing freeholder or where there is dispute about the premium for a lease extension, under the relevant statutes it is possible to make an application to the LVT to determine the sum to be paid.

An example of a Lease Extension case for a Elmers End property is Flats 55, 67 & 70 Melbourne Court Anerley Road in July 2013. The tribunal calculated that the premium for the extended lease at £48,366.00 for at 55, and £88,329.00 for ats 67 and 70 combined. This case affected 1 flat. The unexpired lease term was 26.38 years.

How does one remove a departed person's name from the title deeds for a house in Elmers End?

If a Elmers End property is jointly owned and one of the owners dies, the name will not immediately be removed from the Land Registry title. It is not necessary to amend the title as when it comes to a sale you would just be asked to evidence as to the reason the other proprietor is not included in the transfer, typically this takes the form of the probate documents.

With a view to making the sale conveyancing more straight forward for the sale of the property you can arrange to have the deceased person erased from the title entries by applying to HMLR with proof of the death. There is no charge from the Registry for this service.
