Can you explain why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Tottenham Green is more expensive?
The conveyancing costs on a leasehold premises in Tottenham Green is frequently higher than on a freehold transaction. This is due to the extra time necessary in dealing with the landlord and managing agents to obtain evidence concerning whether the rent and service charges have been discharged and whether there are any large sums expected to be spent in the near future on repairs or maintenance of the block.

There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Tottenham Green registration formalities. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary subject to the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies. Currently in the region of three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with within two weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the premises therefore post completion formalities is not typically top priority yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers should communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
How does conveyancing in Tottenham Green differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Tottenham Green come to us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is ready to move into. This is because new home sellers in Tottenham Green tend to acquire the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Tottenham Green or who has acted in the same development.

Back In 2004, I bought a leasehold house in Tottenham Green. Conveyancing and Santander mortgage organised. A letter has just been received from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. It included a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1993. The conveyancing solicitor in Tottenham Green who previously acted has now retired. What should I do?
The first thing you should do is make enquiries of HMLR to make sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is indeed the registered owner of the freehold reversion. It is not necessary to incur the fees of a Tottenham Green conveyancing firm to do this as it can be done on-line for less than a fiver. You should note that in any event, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.
