Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my house are lost. The conveyancers who dealt with the conveyancing in Great Yarmouth 10 years ago are no longer around. What are my options?

Assuming you have a registered title the information relating to your ownership will be recorded by HMLR with a Title Number. It is easy to perform a search at the Land Registry, locate your house and order current copies of the Registered Entries for less than a fiver. Where the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will usually retain a file duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be ordered for £20 inclusive of VAT.

About to purchase a new build flat in Great Yarmouth. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Great Yarmouth

    Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.

I was recommended by a number of selling agents in Great Yarmouth to select a solicitor using your seach tool. What’s the financial advantage for Estate Agents to offer your services ahead of a competitor’s?

We don’t give any referral fee for pointing buyers and sellers in our direction. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission because members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

I wish to rent out my leasehold flat in Great Yarmouth. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Is permission from the freeholder required?

Your lease dictates relations between the landlord and you the flat owner; specifically, it will indicate if subletting is banned, or permitted but only subject to certain caveats. The accepted inference is that if the lease contains no specific ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. The majority of leases in Great Yarmouth do not contain subletting altogether – such a provision would adversely affect the market value the flat. In most cases there is simply a requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly sending a duplicate of the tenancy agreement.

I am the registered owner of a studio flat in Great Yarmouth, conveyancing formalities finalised in 1998. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Equivalent properties in Great Yarmouth with over 90 years remaining are worth £216,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 yearly. The lease ceases on 21st October 2094

With just 68 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as professional fees.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to advice on the actual costs without more comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
