I own a freehold property in Barmouth yet invoiced for rent, why is this and what is this?

It’s unusual for properties in Barmouth and has limited impact for conveyancing in Barmouth but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges date back hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of new rentcharges post 1977.

Previous rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 will be extinguished.

How does conveyancing in Barmouth differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Barmouth approach us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because developers in Barmouth typically buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Barmouth or who has acted in the same development.

You need to be realistic concerning timing. Property transactions in Barmouth takes on average about two months. This time period is not due to solicitor being slow and purposely delay matters. The level of money involved in buying any property is so high, the purchaser's conveyancer having to carry out a whole range of questions, searches and supplemental checks to protect the purchaser and their mortgage company (if there is to be a mortgage) from expensive, avoidable problems. Conveyancing in Barmouth involves obtaining information from a range of third parties, including other solicitor, local councils, private companies, lenders. Many of these are well organised. Plenty are not. It is worth noting that, no matter how quickly your lawyer do their part, if the people you are purchasing from or are selling to aren't ready, nothing can go ahead until they are up to speed.
