I purchased a freehold premises in Littleborough but nevertheless invoiced for rent, why is this and what is this?
It is rare for properties in Littleborough and has limited impact for conveyancing in Littleborough but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.
Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges date back many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of fresh rentcharges from 1977 onwards.
Old rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 is to be dispensed with completely.
We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Littleborough and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated.

The conveyancing practitioner that is on a bank conveyancing panel is obliged to advise the mortgage company of any changes to the sale amount. If you were to refuse your property lawyer to report the reduction to your mortgage company then they would have to refrain from representing you and the mortgage company.
