You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

When it comes to leasehold conveyancing in Bromley Common what are the most common lease defects?

Leasehold conveyancing in Bromley Common is not unique. All leases are drafted differently and drafting errors can sometimes mean that certain sections are not included. The following missing provisions could result in a defective lease:

    A duty to insure the building Maintenance charge proportions which don’t add up to the correct percentage

A defective lease will likely cause issues when trying to sell a property as they can affect a potential buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage.

If a mortgage lender believes that the lease is defective they may refuse to grant the mortgage, obliging the buyer to pull out.
