My partner and I have recently purchased a house in Bloxham. We have since encountered a number of issues with the house which we consider were overlooked in the conveyancing searches. Do we have any recourse? What searches should? have been ordered for conveyancing in Bloxham?
The query is vague as to the nature of the problems and if they are unique to conveyancing in Bloxham. Conveyancing searches and investigations initiated as part of the legal transfer of property are supposed to help avoid problems. As part of the process, a property owner answers a questionnaire called a Seller’s Property Information Form. If the information is incorrect, you may have a misrepresentation claim against the owner for any losses that you have suffered. The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Bloxham.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Bloxham is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Bloxham are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Bloxham you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Bloxham may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
What does commercial conveyancing in Bloxham cover?
Bloxham conveyancing for business premises covers a wide array of services, provided by qualified solicitors, relating to business property. By way of example, this area of conveyancing can cover the sale or purchase of freehold business premises or, more usually, the transfer of existing leases or the drafting of new leasing arrangements. Commercial conveyancing solicitors can also offer advice on the sale of business assets, commercial mortgages and the termination of leases.
I am a negotiator for a busy estate agent office in Bloxham where we see a few flat sales jeopardised due to leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received inconsistent advice from local Bloxham conveyancing firms. Could you confirm whether the owner of a flat can commence the lease extension formalities for the buyer?
As long as the seller has owned the lease for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer need not have to wait 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, 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 buyer.

It is important to be aware if fixing the lift or some other major work is due in the foreseeable future to be shared amongst the leaseholders and will dramatically increase the the maintenance fees or result in a specific invoice. For most Bloxham leaseholds the outlay for major works tend not to be included within maintenance charges, albeit that some managing agents in Bloxham obliged leaseholders to pay into a reserve fund and this is used to offset against major repairs or maintenance.
