Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Norton costs more?

Norton leasehold properties involve far more paperwork than a freehold purchase, and therefore takes more time to examine and advise upon.Conveyancing will involve the lease having to be checked which is usually a lengthy document, queries raised to ensure that the covenants and conditions have been observed. If it is a flat there will be a management company in existence and the accounts of this will need to be checked and enquiries raised to ensure it is operating efficiently and that all monies due have been paid by the Seller to the company and if not ensuring that money is paid up to date or the appropriate undertakings obtained.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Norton I like with a park and railway links nearby, the downside is that it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Norton in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.

I am downsizing from my home. My former conveyancers have shut. I am in need of a recommendation of a conveyancing firm. I happen to live in Norton if that affects matters.

My partner and I may need to let out our Norton ground floor flat for a while due to taking a sabbatical. We instructed a Norton conveyancing practice in 2002 but they have closed and we did not have the foresight to seek any guidance as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?

A small minority of properties in Norton do contain a provision to say that subletting is only allowed with permission. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably refuse but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.

Norton Conveyancing for Leasehold Flats - Examples of Queries before Purchasing

    It would be prudent to enquire if there are any onerous prohibitions in the lease. By way of example plenty of leases prohibit pets being allowed in certain buildings in Norton. If you love the apartmentin Norton however your cat can’t make the move with you then you will be faced hard decision. The best form of lease structure is a share of the freehold. In this arrangement the lessees have control and although a managing agent is frequently employed where the building is larger than a house conversion, the managing agent is directed by the tenants. Does this lease have in excess of 85 years unexpired?
