Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hurst Green

My wife and I intend to remortgage our apartment in Hurst Green with Nottingham. We have a son 19 who lives with us. Our solicitor requested us to identify anyone over the age of 17 other than ourselves who lives in the flat. The solicitor has now sent a form for our son to sign, waiving any legal rights in the event that the property is forfeited by the lender. I have two concerns (1) Is this document specific to the Nottingham conveyancing panel as he did not need to sign this form when we bought 3 years ago (2) Does our son by signing this extinguish his entitlement to inherit the property?

First, rest assured that your Nottingham conveyancing panel solicitor is doing the right thing as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to Nottingham. This is solely used to protect Nottingham if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son’s right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of Nottingham had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Hurst Green is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Hurst Green are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Hurst Green you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Hurst Green may determine 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 residence.

How does one as executor remove a deceased person's name from the title register for a house in Hurst Green?

Where a Hurst Green property is co-owned and one of the owners passes away, their name will not immediately be removed from the title deeds. It is not necessary to amend the title as in the event of a disposal you would simply be required to supply proof why the joint proprietor is not included in the contract, usually this is in the form of a grant of probate.

With a view to making the sale conveyancing more straight forward in the future you may arrange to have the deceased person removed from the title by applying to HM Land Registry with proof of the death. There is no land registry fee payable.
