I purchased my apartment on 16 September and the transaction details are still not on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in North End expressed confidence that it should be concluded inside ten days. Are titles in North End uniquely lengthy to register?

As far as conveyancing in North End registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any 3rd persons or bodies. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within 12 days but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Registration is effected once the purchaser is living at the premises thus 'speed' is not always top priority yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers can communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.

I am buying a new build apartment in North End. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in North End

    The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £305k and identified one near me in North End I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in North End suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?

If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

I have been recommended by a number of property agents in North End to select a conveyancer on your site. Is there a financial upside for Estate Agents to promote your lawyers rather than alternative conveyancing organisations?

We don’t give any commission for directing people to this site. We thought it would be too underhand a fee as members of the public would think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

We have reached the end of our tether in trying to purchase the freehold in North End. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on premiums?

in cases where there is a absentee landlord or if there is disagreement about what the lease extension should cost, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the LVT to judgment on the price payable.

An example of a Lease Extension case for a North End premises is Various @ Colombus Square in January 2012. the Tribunal calculated the premiums to be paid for new leases for each of the flats in Mariners Walk to be £3822 and the premium to be paid for the new lease of 2 Knights Court to be £4439. This case related to 13 flats. The remaining number of years on the lease was 76 years.

What makes a North End lease defective?

There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in North End. Most leases are unique and drafting errors can sometimes mean that certain provisions are not included. For example, if your lease is missing any of the following, it could be defective:

    A provision for the recovery of money spent for the benefit of another party. Maintenance charge proportions which don’t add up to the correct percentage

A defective lease can cause issues when trying to sell a property as they can affect a potential buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage. National Westminster Bank, Bank of Scotland, and Britannia all have very detailed conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. If a mortgage lender believes that the lease is defective they may refuse to provide security, obliging the buyer to withdraw.
