Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bankside

I was told yesterday by my IFA that my Bankside lawyer is not on the bank Conveyancing panel. How can I be sure if this is correct?

The first thing you need to do is to call your Bankside conveyancer. It is reasonable to expect your lawyer to notify you what has happened. If they are not on the panel they could put your in touch with solicitors on the approved list of lawyers for your mortgage company.

It is a dozen years since I bought my property in Bankside. Conveyancing solicitors have now been appointed on the sale but I can't find the title documents. Will this cause complications?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a possibility that the deeds will be with your lender or they may be archived with the lawyers who handled your purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers procuring up to date copy of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Bankside involves registered property but in the rare situation where your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

I have a renovated Georgian house in Bankside. Conveyancing practitioner acted for me and Birmingham Midshires. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the matching address. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?

You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Bankside and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also question the situation with your conveyancing lawyer who conducted the work.

In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my commercial property in Bankside and how can your lawyers assist?

The particular law that you refer to provides a safeguard to business tenants, giving them the a statutory right to apply to court for a renewal tenancy and continue in occupation when the lease comes to an end. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are complex. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing firms who use the act to your advantage and help with commercial conveyancing in Bankside

I have just appointed agents to market my basement apartment in Bankside. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, but I have just had a yearly service charge invoice – what should I do?

Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should pay the invoice as you normally would given that all rents and maintenance invoices should be apportioned on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
