I am the registered owner of a freehold house in Blackfen but still invoiced for rent, why is this and what is this?

It’s unusual for properties in Blackfen and has limited impact for conveyancing in Blackfen 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 have existed for many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the creation of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.

Old rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 will be extinguished.

What happens if my lawyer’s firm is removed from the HSBC Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Blackfen?

The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

How does conveyancing in Blackfen differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Blackfen approach us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because developers in Blackfen usually buy the site, 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 Blackfen or who has acted in the same development.

My uncle has encouraged me to appoint his lawyers for conveyancing in Blackfen. Do I take his advice?

No doubt the best way to choose a conveyancing practitioner is to get recommendations from friends or family who have actually experience in using the firm you're contemplating using.
