I purchased a freehold residence in Bridgnorth but still invoiced for rent, why is this and what is this?
It is rare for properties in Bridgnorth and has limited impact for conveyancing in Bridgnorth 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 date back hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of new rentcharges post 1977.
Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence in 2037 is to be dispensed with completely.

How does conveyancing in Bridgnorth differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Bridgnorth come to us having been asked by the developer to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is completed. This is because house builders in Bridgnorth usually acquire the land, 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 conveyancers 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Bridgnorth or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking to sell my property. My previous conveyancers closed down. It would be helpful to have a recommendation of a conveyancing firm. I happen to live in Bridgnorth if that affects matters.

What are the compelling benefits to instructing a local property lawyer in Bridgnorth
Many purchasers and sellers in Bridgnorth prefer a local conveyancer so that they can pop into the firm’s offices in the event that they have questions, and to execute documents rather taking the chance in depending on the post.
One could argue that there exists a slight benefit when selecting a solicitor nearby to the property you are buying, due to the in-depth knowledge of the area and potential local concerns - yet this is moot. The majority of conveyancers are now online and may be based anywhere.
