Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Norwood. 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 legal work.
Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Norwood
-
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. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.
Planning to complete next month on a studio apartment in Norwood. Conveyancing lawyers have said that they report fully on Monday. Are there areas in the report that I should be focusing on?
The report on title for your leasehold conveyancing in Norwood should include some of the following:
-
It needs to be made clear to you if the lease allows you to add or improve aspects of the flat- you should be made aware as to whether any restrictions applies to all alterations or limited to structural alteration, and whether consent is mandated necessary Whether the landlord has obligations to ensure rights of quiet enjoyment over your premises and do you know what it means in practice? Who has the liability to repair and maintain the building. It is important that you know which party is duty bound to repair and maintenance of all parts of the block and communal areas You should have a good understanding of the building insurance requirements if lease has a provision for a slush fund?
I inherited a 1 bedroom flat in Norwood, conveyancing formalities finalised 3 years ago. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Similar flats in Norwood with a long lease are worth £180,000. The ground rent is £65 charged once a year. The lease finishes on 21st October 2083
With just 58 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £22,800 and £26,400 plus legals.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
As a leasehold owner I am liable for a service charge for my ground floor flat in Norwood. As a result of personal circumstances I fell into arrears with remittance. The managing agents agreed a clearance plan but there is still three grand outstanding as of today.
I am under pressure to sell and I am worried this may threaten to derail the sale if I have to settle the amount due first. Do I have to settle before - is this practicable?
It would be wise to check with the solicitor conducting your Norwood conveyancing but it might be possible to arrange for the outstanding amount to be passed to the buyers. The purchase price payable would be adjusted to reflect the amount of debt they take on. They could then pay the arrears once they are the owners.
