Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Loxford

When can the exchange of contracts happen for residential conveyancing in Loxford and do I need to be at the conveyancers branch?

Where you are local to our conveyancing solicitors in Loxford you are welcome to come in to sign contracts. However, the lender approved solicitors we work with supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give just as diligent and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The executing of the contract is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the solicitor to exchange contracts when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where an extended "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Loxford)to be in the office at the appropriate time.

A colleague advised me that where I am buying in Loxford I should ask my conveyancer to perform a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. Can you explain what the purpose of this search is?

A search of this type is usually included in the estimate for your Loxford conveyancing searches. It is not a small report of about 40 pages, listing and setting out significant information about Loxford around the property and the people living there.

About to purchase a new build flat in Loxford. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.

Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Loxford

    Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Loxford is where the house is located. Is there any guidance you can give?

Flying freeholds in Loxford are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Loxford you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Loxford 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 premises.

Expecting to complete next month on a ground floor flat in Loxford. Conveyancing solicitors assured me that they will have a report out to me on Monday. What should I be looking out for?

The report on title for your leasehold conveyancing in Loxford should include some of the following:

    Where does the liability rest to repair and maintain the building. It is important for you to know which party is duty bound to repair and maintenance of all parts of the block and communal areas What you can do if a neighbour breaches a clause of their lease? Ground rent - how much and when you need to pay, and be on notice if this will change in the future What options are available to the landlord where you have contravened the provisions of the lease? You need to be informed what is to be regarded as a Nuisance in the lease
For a comprehensive list of information to be contained in your report on your leasehold property in Loxford please enquire of your solicitor in advance of your conveyancing in Loxford.

After months of correspondence we are unable to agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Loxford. Does the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal have jurisdiction to calculate the appropriate figures?

Where there is a missing freeholder or where there is dispute about the premium for a lease extension, under the relevant statutes it is possible to make an application to the LVT to decide the premium.
