four months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Aston Clinton concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

I work for a busy estate agency in Aston Clinton where we have experienced a number of leasehold sales put at risk due to short leases. I have received inconsistent advice from local Aston Clinton conveyancing solicitors. Please can you shed some light as to whether the seller of a flat can commence the lease extension formalities for the purchaser on completion of the sale?

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 wait 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done prior to, or simultaneously with completion of the sale.

Alternatively, it may be possible to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord 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.

Aston Clinton Leasehold Conveyancing - Examples of Questions you should consider Prior to Purchasing

    It would be prudent to find out as much as you can regarding the managing agents as they can either make life much simpler or problematic. As the owner of a leasehold property you are often in the clutches of the managing agents both financially and when it comes to day to day matters such as the cleanliness of the communal areas. You should not be shy to ask other tenants whether they are happy with them. In conclusion, investigate as to the dates that the maintenance fees are due to the appropriate party and precisely how they are spending that money. Are any of leasehold owners in dispute over their service charge liability?
