I am aiming to move house in May. Should my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Arnold. Conveyancing lawyer was chosen before I stumbled across your website.

I happen to be the only beneficiary of my late mum's will with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Arnold. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in January. I plan to dispose of the house. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship will be treated the same way as if I'd bought the house in January. Do I have to wait half a year to sell?

The CML handbook obliges solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you might be affected by that. How sensible a view lenders take of it, depend on the bank as this clause principally exists to capture subsales or the quick reselling of properties.

TSB have agreed my home loan in principle, my offer on a house in Arnold has been accepted, what happens next?

The property agent will want to be informed of your conveyancing practitioner's details (ensure that the solicitors are on the bank’s panel). Call up TSB or the broker and complete any appropriate paperwork. TSB will sellect a valuer who will get in contact with the estate agent or vendor to schedule a slot for the valuation to occur. Once carried out (assuming no problems) it takes on average a fortnight for the mortgage offer to be issued. TSB will send the offer to you and your conveyancers. The legal work will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Arnold.

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 straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Arnold is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Arnold are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Arnold you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Arnold 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.

If all goes to plan we aim to complete our sale of a £250,000 garden flat in Arnold on Thursday in a week. The managing agents has quoted £324 for Certificate of Compliance, building insurance schedule and 3 years service charge statements. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge such fees for a leasehold conveyance in Arnold?

Arnold conveyancing on leasehold apartments usually involves fees being invoiced by managing agents :

    Addressing pre-exchange questions Where consent is required before sale in Arnold Copies of the building insurance and schedule Deeds of covenant upon sale Registering of the assignment of the change of lessee after a sale
Your conveyancer will have no control over the level of the charges for this information but the average costs for the information for Arnold leasehold property is £350. For Arnold conveyancing transactions it is customary for the seller to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer such questions most will be willing to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices where the fees bear little relation to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no law that requires fixed charges for administrative tasks. Neither is there any legal time frame by which they are required to provide the information.

Arnold Conveyancing for Leasehold Flats - Sample of Questions you should ask Prior to Purchasing

    Please note that where the lease has fewer than 80 years it will have adverse implications on the value of the flat. Check with your mortgage company that they are willing to to proceed given the lease term. Leases with less than 80 years remaining means that you will probably need a lease extension at some point and it is worth discovering what this would cost. Remember, in most cases you will need to own the residence for 24 months before you are legally able to exercise a lease extension. The answer will be important as a) areas can result in problems in the building as the common areas may begin to deteriorate if repairs remain unpaid b) if the leasehold owners have an issue with the running of the building you will wish to have all the details
