It has been four months since my purchase conveyancing in Stroud Green completed. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Stroud Green. 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 is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Stroud Green
-
Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Please supply a car parking plan. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents.
In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my business premises in Stroud Green and how can you help?
The particular law that you refer to gives security of tenure to commercial tenants, granting the legal entitlement to apply to court for a continuation of occupancy when the lease comes to an end. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are complex. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing firms who use the act for protection and help with commercial conveyancing in Stroud Green

I am hoping to exchange soon on a garden flat in Stroud Green. Conveyancing lawyers inform me that they will have a report out to me tomorrow. Are there areas in the report that I should be focusing on?
The report on title for your leasehold conveyancing in Stroud Green should include some of the following:
-
Whether the landlord has obligations to ensure rights of quiet enjoyment over your premises and do you know what it means in practice? Whether the lease restricts you from letting out the property, or working from home Are pets allowed in the flat? The landlord’s rights to access the flat. You should be made aware that your landlord has rights of access as well as be informed how much notice must be provided.
I have had difficulty in trying to reach an agreement for a lease extension in Stroud Green. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on premiums?
in cases where there is a absentee landlord or where there is dispute about what the lease extension should cost, under the relevant statutes you can apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal to calculate the amount due.
An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement case for a Stroud Green residence is 51 Lorne Road in November 2009. The price Payable as decided by the tribunal for the freehold reversion was £27,000. The valuation follows the order of the County Court made on 3 April 2008 granting a vesting order. This case was in relation to 1 flat. The remaining number of years on the lease was 71 years.
I have finally had an offer on an flat in Stroud Green accepted, the seller does however have an associated purchase. The sellers have submitted an offer on somewhere, although it’s not yet agreed to, and has viewings of other apartments booked. I have selected a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Stroud Green. What should be my next step? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Skipton?
It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Stroud Green conveyancing search charges, etc). The first course of action is to ensure that your conveyancer is on the Skipton approved list. As to the next steps this very much depends on the circumstances of your transaction, desire for the property and on the state of the market. In a hot market some purchasers will apply for the mortgage with Skipton and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their conveyancing practitioner to press on with the conveyancing in Stroud Green.
