Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Brentford prior to appointing solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. The surveyor has said that some mortgage companies may not issue a loan on this type of premises.

We're new on the property ladder - had an offer accepted, yet the property agent informed us that the seller will only go ahead if we appoint their recommended solicitors as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’.

It is unlikely the owners are driving this. Should the vendor want ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Speak to the owners direct and make sure they understand (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to instruct your preferred Brentford conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will earn the negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing targets set by senior management.

I am looking at a two apartments in Brentford both have approximately 50 years left on the leases. Do I need to be concerned?

There are no two ways about it. A leasehold apartment in Brentford is a deteriorating asset as a result of the shortening lease. The nearer the lease gets to zero years unexpired, the more it adversely affects the salability of the property. For most buyers and mortgage companies, leases with under 75 years become less and less marketable. On a more upbeat note, leaseholders can extend their leases by serving a Section 42 Notice. One stipulation is that they must have owned the property for two years (unlike a Section 13 notice for purchasing the freehold, when leaseholders can participate from day one of ownership). When successful, they will have the right to an extension of 90 years to the current term and ground rent is effectively reduced to zero. Before moving forward with a purchase of premises with a short lease term remaining you should talk to a solicitor specialising in lease extensions and leasehold enfranchisement. We are are happy to put you in touch with Brentford conveyancing experts who will explain the options available to you during an initial telephone conversation free of charge. More often than not it is possible to negotiate informally with the freeholder to extend the lease. They may agree to a smaller lump sum and an increase in the ground rent, but to shorter extension terms in return. You need to ensure that the agreed terms represent good long-term value compared with the standard benefits of the Section 42 Notice and that onerous clauses are not inserted into any redrafting of the lease.

After years of dialogue we are unable to agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Brentford. Does the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal have jurisdiction to calculate the appropriate figures?

Most certainly. We can put you in touch with a Brentford conveyancing firm who can help.

I'm buying a bungalow in Brentford. I have found my conveyancer's company on the CLC list, but I can't see my lawyer's name on the list. Is this a big problem?

Not all staff in the practice must be listed by the regulator. Provided there is a manager qualified to 'oversee' the conveyancing, the actual day-to-day activity can be undertaken by unqualified staff.
