I just bought a house at auction in Addiscombe. Conveyancing is needed. What is next?
Having to in every practical sense signed on the dotted line you must find a conveyancing lawyer quickly as you are facing a tight a fixed date to complete the deal. An auction property should have an associated legal pack. This will include evidence of title and search results. Where you are dealing with leasehold property the auction pack may provide a copy of the lease, management information and a sellers leasehold information form and associated conveyancing paperwork pertinent to leasehold premises. You must pass this on to the conveyancer instructed by you ASAP. You also need to ensure that you have funds organised to complete the transaction on the set completion date.
I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in March 2006, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, UBS are being problematic. The Addiscombe solicitor who is on the UBS conveyancing panel is recommending indemnity insurance as a solution but UBS are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do UBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that UBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why UBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
Intending to buy a house in Addiscombe. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Addiscombe conveyancer is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel.
I am buying a property and the solicitor has raised the issue of Chancel Repair to which the property could be obligated to contribute to given it’s proximity to the area of such a church. He has mentioned insurance. Is this strictly appropriate for conveyancing in Addiscombe

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a quick, no chain conveyancing. Addiscombe is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Addiscombe are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Addiscombe you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Addiscombe may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

I have recently realised that I have 72 years unexpired on my lease in Addiscombe. I need to get lease extension but my landlord is absent. What are my options?
On the basis that you meet the appropriate requirements, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for for permission to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be lengthened by the magistrate. You will be obliged to prove that you have used your best endeavours to track down the lessor. On the whole a specialist should be helpful to conduct investigations and to produce a report which can be accepted by the court as evidence that the landlord is indeed missing. It is wise to seek advice from a conveyancer both on proving the landlord’s absence and the vesting order request to the County Court overseeing Addiscombe.
I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord to extend my lease without success. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on such issues? Can you recommend a Addiscombe conveyancing firm to help?
You certainly can. We can put you in touch with a Addiscombe conveyancing firm who can help.
