Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Tower Hill

My IFA has requested my Tower Hill law firm’s panel member for the HSBC conveyancing panel. Can you suggest how I obtain this. I have contacted my local Tower Hill office but they cant find it on their system.

Have you tried speaking to your Tower Hill solicitor about this?. They maintain a central record lender panel numbers.

Some advice if I may. My Tower Hill conveyancer is informing me me that he is legally obliged toapply for Tower Hill conveyancing searches asthe firm are on the Santanderapproved lawyer panel. These Tower Hill checks cost a lot of money can this be avoided?

You have limited options available to you. As you are obtaining a mortgage with a bank your conveyancing practitioner has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancing practitioner would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook specifications . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Tower Hill conveyancing searches.

I am buying a new build apartment in Tower Hill. 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 conveyancing.

Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Tower Hill

    There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.

I need to instruct a conveyancing solicitor for my conveyancing in Tower Hill. I've land on a site which appears to be the ideal answer If it is possible to get all the legals done via email that would be preferable. Do I need to be concerned? What should out be looking out for?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?

I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord to extend my lease without success. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal decide on such matters? Can you recommend a Tower Hill conveyancing firm to help?

Where there is a missing landlord or if there is disagreement about the premium for a lease extension, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 it is possible to make an application to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to judgment on the sum to be paid.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement case for a Tower Hill premises is 1-41 Royal Tower Lodge 40 Cartwright Street in April 2013. the tribunal adding the agreed value of capitalised ground rents and the reversion the price to be paid for the freehold was £1,187,000 This case affected 41 flats. The unexpired term as at the valuation date was 107 years.

What makes a Tower Hill lease unacceptable for security purposes?

There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in Tower Hill. Most leases are individual and legal mistakes in the legal wording can result in certain provisions are erroneous. For example, if your lease is missing any of the following, it could be defective:

    A provision for the recovery of money spent for the benefit of another party. Insurance obligations

A defective lease can cause problems when trying to sell a property primarily because it impacts on the ability to obtain a mortgage on the property. Birmingham Midshires, Barnsley Building Society, and Britannia all have express conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. Where a lender has been advised by their lawyers that the lease does not cover certain provisions they may refuse to grant the mortgage, forcing the purchaser to pull out.

I was advised by my mortgage company that their panel solicitors operate no move no charge basis for conveyancing in Tower Hill. My purchase aborted and now the lawyers have requested search fees! They say the fees are independent!

in promising "no move no fee" Tower Hill conveyancing practices are foregoing their fees for any work done. We should make it clear that this is NOT an insurance scheme. you will still be expected to reimburse any charges that the conveyancing practitioner has outlayed for you for example Tower Hill local authority checks
