I own a freehold residence in Telford but still charged rent, why is this and what is this?
It’s unusual for properties in Telford and has limited impact for conveyancing in Telford 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 generation of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.
Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence in 2037 will be extinguished.
I am assisting my sister sell her house in Telford. Does the conveyancing solicitor commission an energy assessment or it is for the owner to see to?
After the abolition of HIPs, EPC’s became a compulsory element of moving house. An energy performance certificate needs to be to hand in advance of the property being advertised. This is not something that conveyancers normally arrange. Where you are using a Telford conveyancing practitioner they might help arrange energy performance certificates given their relationships with reputable local energy assessors

Subsequently you can inform the removal men that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal organisation but can help you locate a conveyancing in Telford or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Telford.
