Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Belmont

My lawyer has identified a a legal deficiency with the lease for the apartment we are purchasing in Belmont. The other side have put forward defective title insurance as a workaround. We are content with insurance and will pay for it. Our lawyer says that he must ensure that the lender is willing to move forward with this solution. Are we the client or is the bank?

The short answer to your last question is that, notwithstanding the potential for a conflict of interest, you and the mortgage company are the client. Your property lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements. The UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions require your lawyer to disclose issues such as defects with the lease so that the mortgage company can be afforded the opportunity to check with their valuer as to the extent that the value of the property is affected. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build apartment in Belmont. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Here are examples of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Belmont

    Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Please supply a car parking plan. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one near me in Belmont I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Belmont in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?

If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

Should one as executor remove a departed person's details from the title register for a house in Belmont?

If a Belmont property is jointly owned and one of the owners dies, their name will not automatically be removed from the Land Registry title. You are not required to amend the title as in the event of a disposal your conveyancer would just need to supply proof why the joint proprietor is not a party to the transfer, such as a grant of probate.

With the aim of making things more straight forward in the future you may arrange to have the deceased person removed from the title entries by applying to HMLR with evidence of the death. There is no fee from the Registry for this service.
