Have purchased a a semi-detached house in Kenley , how long will it take for the Land Registry to register my ownership? My Kenley conveyancing solicitor has been painfully slow, so I want to be certain that my name is recorded.
As far as conveyancing in Kenley is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry have to notify any third parties. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are completed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted delays. Registration occurs after the buyer has moved in to the property therefore 'speed' is not typically an essential issue but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Kenley I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Kenley suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.

The management company has quoted £324 for Landlord’s certificate, building insurance schedule and previous years service charge statements. Is the landlord entitled to charge exorbitant fees for a leasehold conveyance in Kenley?
Kenley conveyancing on leasehold apartments often involves the buyer’s lawyer submitting questions for the landlord to address. Although the landlord is not legally bound to address these enquiries the majority will be willing to assist. They are entitled to levy a reasonable administration fee for responding to questions or supplying documentation. There is no set fee. The average fee for the information that you are referring to is over three hundred pounds, in some transactions it exceeds £800. The administration charge demanded by the landlord must be accompanied by a synopsis of rights and obligations in respect of administration fees, without which the charge is technically not due. In reality one has little choice but to pay whatever is demanded if you want to complete the sale of your home.
