Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Bromley

There are a variety of conveyancing solicitors in Bromley but how do I know who's good?

Do not opt for the lowest Bromley conveyancing costs illustration. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need.

We are buying a 4 bedroom semi-detached house in Bromley. We would like to carry out a loft conversion at the property.Will the conveyancing process involve enquiries to see if these works are allowed?

Your property lawyer should review the registered title as conveyancing in Bromley will sometimes reveal restrictions in the title documents which restrict certain changes or need the permission of a 3rd party. Many extensions need local authority planning consent and approval in accordance building regulations. Many areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or affect extensions. It would be sensible to check these things with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.

I am purchasing a property in Bromley. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Nottingham have issued a mortgage offer so presumably this is not a concern to them. Why is my solicitor raising questions about the panel?

As your lender is Nottingham your lawyer must check the formal requirements set out in Section two of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Nottingham. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook contains minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and lawyers are required to report to Nottingham where a lease fails to satisfy these provisions. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not restricted to Bromley.

It has been four months following my purchase conveyancing in Bromley took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I'm buying a new build house in Bromley with a mortgage from Skipton Building Society. The builders would not move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The property agent advised me not to tell my conveyancer about this deal as it would put at risk my loan with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

How do I use your search app to get a fee calculation from a conveyancing practitioner in Bromley on the panel for my lender?

I wish to sublet my leasehold flat in Bromley. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Is permission from the freeholder required?

Your lease governs the relationship between the landlord and you the leaseholder; in particular, it will set out if subletting is banned, or permitted but only subject to certain caveats. The accepted inference is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is permitted. Most leases in Bromley do not prevent subletting altogether – such a provision would undoubtedly devalue the flat. In most cases there is simply a requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly supplying a copy of the tenancy agreement.

I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord to extend my lease without success. Can I apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Bromley conveyancing firm to act on my behalf?

Most certainly. We are happy to put you in touch with a Bromley conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Lease Extension decision for a Bromley residence is 70 Andace Park Gardens 133-149 Widmore Road in November 2013. Tribunal determined that the premium payable for the lease extension was £10,052 This case was in relation to 1 flat. The unexpired residue of the current lease was 72 years.

Is there a reason that Bromley conveyancing charges differ for leasehold and freehold properties?

There is always increased work necessary in leasehold conveyancing. Bromley has many leasehold properties. There is more paperwork involved in the purchase: for example, the lease and leasehold information (including current service charge, ground rent and buildings insurance details) obtained from the freeholder or managing agents. There are strict criteria that the lease must meet in order to be acceptable to a mortgage company. If it does not meet these requirements, the lease must be amended, which can involve additional expense for the seller.
