I'm purchasing my first flat in Albrighton benefiting from help to buy. The builders would not budge the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of additionals instead. The house builders rep told me not reveal to my solicitor about this side-deal as it would put at risk my loan with The Royal Bank of Scotland. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in last month in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Albrighton is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Albrighton are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Albrighton you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Albrighton may ascertain 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.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the property agent informed us that the seller will only issue a contract if we instruct their chosen lawyers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Albrighton

We suspect that the owner is not behind this request. If they require ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Contact the vendors directly and explain that (a)you are genuine purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to appoint your preferred Albrighton conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will earn the estate agent a kickback or achieve conveyancing figures demanded by corporate headquarters.

Can you provide any top tips for leasehold conveyancing in Albrighton with the purpose of expediting the sale process?

  • A significant proportion of the delay in leasehold conveyancing in Albrighton can be avoided where you instruct lawyers as soon as you market your property and request that they start to collate the leasehold documentation needed by the buyers’ solicitors.
  • A minority of Albrighton leases require Landlord’s consent to the sale and approval of the buyers. If this is the case, it would be prudent to notify your estate agents to make sure that the purchasers obtain bank and professional references. Any bank reference will need to confirm that the buyers are financially capable of paying the annual service charge and the actual amount of the service charge should be quoted in the bank’s letter. You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the service charge figures so that they can pass this information on to the purchasers or their solicitors. If you have carried out any alterations to the premises would they have required Landlord’s permission? Have you, for example installed wooden flooring? Albrighton leases often stipulate that internal structural changes or laying down wooden flooring require a licence issued by the Landlord acquiescing to such works. Where you dont have the paperwork in place you should not contact the landlord without contacting your solicitor in advance. If you have the benefit of shareholding in the Management Company, you should ensure that you hold the original share certificate. Arranging a new share certificate is often a lengthy process and delays many a Albrighton conveyancing transaction. If a duplicate share certificate is required, you should approach the company director and secretary or managing agents (where relevant) for this sooner rather than later.
