Will commercial conveyancing searches disclose proposed roadworks that could affect a commercial land in Bracknell?
Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Bracknell will order a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers invest in sourcing accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Bracknell. The search result provides definitive information on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Bracknell.
For each commercial conveyancing transaction in Bracknell it is crucial to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Bracknell I like with open areas and railway links nearby, however it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Bracknell suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?
Should you need a home loan that many years may be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
My cousin has suggested that I instruct his conveyancers in Bracknell. Do I follow his recommendation?
No doubt the best way to choose a conveyancing solicitor is to seek referrals from friends or relatives who have actually previously instructed the conveyancer you're contemplating using.
What makes a Bracknell lease defective?
There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in Bracknell. Most leases are individual and legal mistakes in the legal wording can sometimes mean that certain sections are wrong. The following missing provisions could result in a defective lease:
-
A provision to repair to or maintain parts of the building
You will have a problem when selling your property if you have a defective lease as they can affect a potential buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage. Halifax, Skipton Building Society, and Godiva Mortgages Ltd all have very detailed conveyancing instructions when it comes to what is expected in a lease. If a mortgage lender believes that the lease is defective they may refuse to provide security, forcing the buyer to withdraw.
I acquired a basement flat in Bracknell, conveyancing having been completed January 1997. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Similar flats in Bracknell with over 90 years remaining are worth £260,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 yearly. The lease ends on 21st October 2099
You have 74 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as legals.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more detailed due diligence.
