The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Tamworth. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build legal work.

Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Tamworth

    The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. 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. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Tamworth. Before I get started I want to be sure as to the remaining lease term.

If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Tamworth - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

    It is important to be aware whether fixing the lift or some other significant cost is due shortly that will be shared between the leasehold owners and may well materially impact the level of the service charges or necessitate a one off invoice. The answer will be useful as a) areas could cause problems for the building as the communal areas may begin to deteriorate where repairs are not paid for b) if the leaseholders have a dispute with the managing agents you will want to know about it How many years are left on the lease?

Can you set examples of distinct advantages to selecting a local lawyer in Tamworth

Home movers in Tamworth opt for a local property lawyer so that they can visit if they have problems, and to deliver documents without using the post.

We would say that there exists a slight benefit in selecting a solicitor nearby to the property you are purchasing, due to the in-depth knowledge of the area and potential local issues - but this is moot. Many conveyancers conduct their communications by way of email and may be anywhere in the world.
