I am the registered owner of a freehold residence in Noak Hill yet invoiced for rent, why is this and what is this?
It’s unusual for properties in Noak Hill and has limited impact for conveyancing in Noak Hill 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 have existed for hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of new rentcharges post 1977.
Previous rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 will be dispensed with completely.
My flat in Noak Hill is up for sale and I have a purchaser. Does the conveyancer need to be on the Skipton conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Skipton conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their requirements fairly frequently currently.
The deeds to our house are lost. The solicitors who did the conveyancing in Noak Hill 10 years ago no longer exist. Will I be able to sell the house?
These day there are copies made of almost everything, and your lawyer will know exactly where to look for all the relevant documentation so you can purchase or sell your house without any difficulty. Where duplicates can’t be found, your conveyancer can put in place insurance or indemnities protecting you against future claims on your premises.
I decided to have a survey done on a house in Noak Hill ahead of appointing solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold aspect to the property. My surveyor has said that some mortgage companies tend not issue a loan on this type of premises.
