My conveyancer has identified a defect with the lease for the flat we are purchasing in New Farnley. The other side have suggested title insurance as a solution. We are content with insurance and will pay for it. Our conveyancer has advised that he must check that the lender is happy with this solution. Who is the client here, us or the mortgage company ?
Notwithstanding that you have a mortgage offer from the lender does not mean to say that the property will meet their provisions for the purposes of a mortgage. Your lawyer has to ensure that the lease has to comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions. You and the bank are the client. These conveyancing instructions have to be complied with.
It is a dozen years since I bought my house in New Farnley. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been appointed on the sale but I can't find the title deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?
Don’t worry too much. First there is a chance that the deeds will be with the mortgage company or they could be in the possession of the conveyancers who acted in your purchase. Secondly in most cases the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers acquiring up to date copy of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in New Farnley involves registered property but in the rare situation where your home is unregistered it is more tricky but is resolvable.

There are only 72 years remaining on my flat in New Farnley. I need to extend my lease but my landlord is absent. What are my options?
If you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be extended by the magistrate. You will be obliged to prove that you have made all reasonable attempts to track down the landlord. In some cases an enquiry agent would be helpful to conduct investigations and to produce a report to be accepted by the court as evidence that the landlord can not be located. It is wise to seek advice from a conveyancer in relation to devolving into the landlord’s absence and the vesting order request to the County Court covering New Farnley.
