My wife and I are planning on selling our home in Henfield and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. Any high street Henfield lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a nationwide conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Henfield. Having lived in Henfield for 5 years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation that the buyers are looking for.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm already. Are they able to advise? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)
It has been 2 months following my purchase conveyancing in Henfield completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Henfield is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?
Flying freeholds in Henfield are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Henfield you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Henfield may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
