Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Iver

I am buying a house mortgage free in Iver. I have resided for the previous dozen years in Iver. Conveyancing searches are exorbitant. Given that I have knowledge of the road and vicinity intimately must I have all the conveyancing searches?

Provided that you do not need a home loan, then almost all of the Iver conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your lawyer will 'advise', no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches carried out, but she has a professional duty to take that path of advice. Do take into account; if you are likely to sell the house at a future date, it will be of relevance to your future buyer what the searches disclose. Sometimes houses with day to day issues can still show up unpredicted search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Iver will provide you some constructive advice here.

How does conveyancing in Iver differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Iver approach us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because new home sellers in Iver usually acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Iver or who has acted in the same development.

Due to the input of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Iver ahead of appointing solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the property. My surveyor has said that some lenders tend refuse to grant a loan on such a premises.

It varies from the lender to lender. Santander has different instructions for example to Halifax. If you call us we can investigate further via the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Iver. Conveyancing will be smoother if you use a solicitor in Iver especially if they are accustomed to such properties in Iver.

I'm refinancing my primary home to a BTL mortgage with Platform Home Loans Ltd and intend to use the remaining equity as a down payment on further house. The area we are talking about is Iver. Will your conveyancers be able to act for the two lenders and link together the two deals?

Do use our comparison tool on this site to be sure that the solicitors are on the relevant lender panels. Assuming that they are the solicitor should be able to tie up the two conveyancing matters but you should have a chat with you solicitor and specify your desired outcome and requirements.

My father has recommend that I use his conveyancing solicitors in Iver. Should I choose my own solicitor?

No doubt the best way to find a conveyancing practitioner is to have feedback from friends or family who have actually experience in using the conveyancer that you are considering.

I am looking at a two flats in Iver both have about fifty years left on the lease term. Should I regard a short lease as a deal breaker?

There is no doubt about it. A leasehold apartment in Iver is a wasting asset as a result of the shortening lease. The nearer the lease gets to zero years unexpired, the more it reduces the value of the property. For most buyers and mortgage companies, leases with less than 75 years become less and less marketable. On a more upbeat note, leaseholders can extend their leases by serving a Section 42 Notice. One stipulation is that they must have owned the property for two years (unlike a Section 13 notice for purchasing the freehold, when leaseholders can participate from day one of ownership). When successful, they will have the right to an extension of 90 years to the current term and ground rent is effectively reduced to zero. Before moving forward with a purchase of premises with a short lease term remaining you should talk to a solicitor specialising in lease extensions and leasehold enfranchisement. We are are happy to put you in touch with Iver conveyancing experts who will explain the options available to you during an initial telephone conversation free of charge. More often than not it is possible to negotiate informally with the freeholder to extend the lease. You may find he or she is happy to negotiate informally and willing to consider your offer straight off, without having to involve anyone else. This will save you time and money and it could help you reach a lower price on the lease. You need to ensure that any new terms represent good long-term value compared with the standard benefits of the Section 42 Notice and that onerous clauses are not inserted into any redrafting of the lease.

I inherited a a ground floor purpose built flat in Iver. In the absence of agreement between myself and the freeholder, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal determine the premium payable for a lease extension?

You certainly can. We are happy to put you in touch with a Iver conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement matter before the tribunal for a Iver residence is 164 Nestles Avenue in October 2013. The tribunal agreed with the proposed price of £20,158 for the freehold and determined that that sum is the amount to be paid into court This case was in relation to 2 flats. The unexpired residue of the current lease was 69 years.
