I'm the single recipient of my late grandmother’s will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Brackley. The Brackley property was put into my name in July. I want to move.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Brackley is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?

Flying freeholds in Brackley are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Brackley you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Brackley 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.

Can you provide any top tips for leasehold conveyancing in Brackley from the perspective of saving time on the sale process?

  • Much of the delay in leasehold conveyancing in Brackley can be avoided where you get in touch lawyers the minute your agents start advertising the property and ask them to put together the leasehold documentation needed by the purchasers’ lawyers.
  • If you are supposed to have a share in the Management Company, you should ensure that you hold the original share certificate. Arranging a replacement share certificate is often a lengthy formality and frustrates many a Brackley conveyancing deal. If a reissued share certificate is needed, you should approach the company director and secretary or managing agents (if applicable) for this at the earliest opportunity. You may think that you are aware of the number of years left on your lease but you should double-check via your conveyancers. A buyer’s conveyancer will be unlikely to recommend their client to proceed with the purchase of a leasehold property the remaining number of years is below 80 years. In the circumstances it is important at an early stage that you consider whether the lease term requires a lease extension. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your property on the market for sale. If you have had any disputes with your landlord or managing agents it is very important that these are resolved before the property is put on the market. The buyers and their solicitors will be nervous about purchasing a flat where a dispute is unresolved. You will have to accept that you will have to pay any arrears of service charge or resolve the dispute prior to completion of the sale. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled prior to the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You will still have to reveal particulars of the dispute to the purchasers, but it is clearly preferable to reveal the dispute as over rather than unsettled. In the event that you altered the property did you need the Landlord’s approval? In particular have you installed wooden flooring? Brackley leases often stipulate that internal structural alterations or installing wooden flooring require a licence from the Landlord approving such alterations. Should you dont have the consents in place you should not communicate with the landlord without checking with your solicitor before hand.

    Its a good idea to find out as much as you can concerning the managing agents as they will either make life much easier or problematic. Being a leasehold owner you are frequently in the clutches of the managing agents from a financial perspective and when it comes to every day issues such as the cleanliness of the communal areas. Don't be afraid to ask other tenants what they think of them. In conclusion, investigate as to the dates that the service fees are due to the relevant party and specifically how they are spending that money. Does the lease contain onerous restrictions? How many years remain on the lease?
