I purchased a freehold residence in Redland yet charged rent, why is this and what is this?
It’s unusual for properties in Redland and has limited impact for conveyancing in Redland 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 date back hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the creation of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.
Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 will be dispensed with completely.
We wanted to use a property lawyer in Redland for our home move. Our broker has since advised us that our mortgage lenders Birmingham Midshires won't deal with them. Surely this is unfair competition?
Lenders tend to imposes restrictions either the category or the amount of conveyancing solicitors on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such criteria being that a firm must not be a sole practitioner. As well as restricting the profile of firm, a few lenders have reduced the number of firms they use to act for them. You should note that Birmingham Midshires have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any member of Birmingham Midshires Conveyancer Panel. Mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of conveyancing panels since 2008 even though there remains mixed opinions regarding the extent of solicitor engagement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry indicate that hundreds of law firms, including some in or near Redland only perform a couple conveyances a year.
I have recentlydiscovered that Wolstenholmes have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Redland for a purchase of a leasehold flat 18 months ago. How can I establish that my home is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?
The quickest way to see if the property is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Redland conveyancing specialists.
