It is is a decade since I purchased my home in Tetbury. Conveyancing lawyers have just been instructed on the sale but I can't track down my title deeds. Is this a major issue?
Don’t worry too much. First there is a chance that the deeds will be kept by the mortgage company or they may be in the possession of the conveyancers who handled your purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the title will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers acquiring current official copies of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Tetbury relates to registered property but in the unlikely event that your property is unregistered it is more of a problem but is not insurmountable.
I am purchasing a property and the conveyancer has identified Chancel Repair to which the house could be liable given it’s proximity to the area of such a church. She has mentioned insurance. Is this strictly warranted for conveyancing in Tetbury
Unless a prior acquisition of the premises completed post 12 October 2013 you could expect solicitors handling conveyancing in Tetbury to remain encouraging a chancel search and or insurance against a claim.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Tetbury?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Tetbury. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
About to purchase a new build apartment in Tetbury. Conveyancing is daunting 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 conveyancing.
Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Tetbury
-
Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier?

My wife and I are disposing of a Tetbury flat we inherited 8 years ago in 2011. I have over a decades worth of conveyancing know-how and, although retired, wish to conduct my own legal work. The purchaser's conveyancing practitioner has informed me that their bank will not allow you to do your own conveyancing as they require the funds to be transferred to a solicitor's bank account.
Lending requirements to lawyers from all mainstream lenders specify that If the seller does not have legal representation the borrower's lawyers should check whether the mortgage company needs to be told so that a decision can be made if they are prepared to move forward.
