Should my lawyer be making enquiries about flooding during the conveyancing in Faringdon.

Flooding is a growing risk for solicitors specialising in conveyancing in Faringdon. Some people will acquire a house in Faringdon, fully aware that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, aside from the physical destruction, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, satisfactory building insurance, or sell the premises. There are steps that can be taken during the course of a house purchase to forewarn the buyer.

Lawyers are not qualified to impart advice on flood risk, however there are a number of checks that may be initiated by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which will figure out the risks in Faringdon. The standard information sent to a purchaser’s solicitor (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) incorporates a standard question of the vendor to find out whether the property has suffered from flooding. If flooding has previously occurred which is not revealed by the seller, then a buyer could bring a claim for damages stemming from an misleading answer. The buyer’s solicitors will also carry out an enviro report. This should disclose whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, more detailed investigations will need to be conducted.

I used Stirling Law a few years ago for my conveyancing in Faringdon. I now require my papers however the law firm has closed. What do I do?

You should contact the Solicitors Regulatory Authority (SRA) to help locate your conveyancing files. They can be contacted on please contact on 0870 606 2555. Alternatively, you should use their online form to make an enquiry. You will need to provide the SRA with as much information as possible to assist their search, including the name and address in Faringdon of the conveyancing firm of solicitors you previously used, the name of conveyancing solicitor with whom you had dealings, and the date on which you last had dealings with the firm.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Faringdon. Before I set the wheels in motion I require certainty as to the number of years remaining on the lease.

If the lease is registered - and almost all are in Faringdon - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars 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 am the registered owner of a 2 bed flat in Faringdon, conveyancing having been completed half a dozen years ago. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Comparable flats in Faringdon with over 90 years remaining are worth £265,000. The ground rent is £50 charged once a year. The lease finishes on 21st October 2101

With 76 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed investigations. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.

I am seeking to acquire a repossessed flat in Faringdon and the bank selling require completion inside a week. Do solicitors complete in this timeframe? Would it be better to select a local Faringdon firm or an online company that professes to offer speedy conveyancing?

Attend your Faringdon high street. Pop in to 3 companies and request to see a conveyancing solicitor for an estimate. Set out your needs and seek assurances on deadlines. Appoint the one that comes across as most efficient. Make sure to select a solicitor on the panel of property lawyers acceptable to your lender.
