    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. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Please supply a car parking plan. 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.

I am a negotiator for a long established estate agency in Abbots Bromley where we have witnessed a number of leasehold sales derailed due to short leases. I have received conflicting advice from local Abbots Bromley conveyancing firms. Can you clarify whether the seller of a flat can instigate the lease extension formalities for the buyer?

Provided that the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to kick-start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer can avoid having to sit tight for 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed before, or at the same time as completion of the sale.

An alternative approach is to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.

    Please inform me if there are any major works on the horizon that will increase the maintenance costs? How much is the ground rent and service charge?

How does one as executor remove a departed person's name from the title register for a property in Abbots Bromley?

Where a Abbots Bromley property is co-owned and one of the owners dies, the name will not immediately be removed from the title deeds. It is not necessary to remove their name as when it comes to a sale your lawyer would just need to supply proof why the joint proprietor is missing from the transfer, such as the probate documents.

With the aim of making things smoother for the sale of the property you may apply to have the deceased name removed from the title entries by applying to HM Land Registry with proof of the death. There is no fee from the Registry for this service.
