Would the conveyancing lawyers via your comparison service execute conveyancing in Bromyard by way of an attended exchange?

There are a few conveyancing experts carrying out 24hr exchanges. Please call us to secure a costs illustration and details as to dates.

I am the registered owner of a freehold house in Bromyard but still invoiced for rent, why is this and what is this?

It’s unusual for properties in Bromyard and has limited impact for conveyancing in Bromyard 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 many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of new rentcharges post 1977.

Previous rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 is to be extinguished.

What happens if my lawyer’s firm is removed from the Kent Reliance Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Bromyard?

The first thing to point out is that, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

I am assisting my step-mother sell her property in Bromyard. Does the conveyancing solicitor order the energy performance certificate or it is for the owner to coordinate?

After the demise of Home Information Packs, energy assessments was retained a mandatory element of selling a property. An EPC must be to hand before the property is marketed. This is not as aspect of the sale process that conveyancers normally arrange. Where you are instructing a Bromyard conveyancing lawyer they might help arrange EPC’s due to their relationships with reputable Bromyard energy assessors

We have agreed to purchase a house in Bromyard. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Nationwide be concerned?

As you are obtaining a mortgage with Nationwide your lawyer must check the conveyancing requirements set out in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Nationwide. The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook stipulates minimum provisions for solar panel roof-space leases, and solicitors are required to report to Nationwide where a lease fails to comply with these specifications. The requirements relate to the installation of panels on properties in England and Wales and is not isolated to Bromyard.

It is unclear whether my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Bromyard bank branch on various occasions and was told it does not affect the mortgage offer and they will lend. My Bromyard conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- telephoned to say that they will not lend based on their published requirements. I simply don't know who is right.

As long as the solicitor is on the lender panel, they must adhere to the CML Handbook specifications for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

The deeds to my house are lost. The conveyancers who dealt with the conveyancing in Bromyard 5 years ago no longer exist. Will I be able to sell the house?

You no longer need to hold title original deeds to prove you are the owner of your registered land or premises, given that the Land Registry have everything they need in a digital format.

As a tenant I am liable for a maintenance contribution for my property in Bromyard. As a result of flawed financial planning I slipped behind with remittance. The management company agreed a clearance plan but there remains two outstanding as of today.

I now wish to dispose of the property and I am concerned this will hold me back if I have to discharge the amount due now. I'd like to sell up and then repay the arrears from the completion monies - is this possible?

Do speak with the conveyancing practitioner carrying out your Bromyard conveyancing but one option could be to agree for the outstanding amount to be attributed to the buyers. The sale price due would be adjusted to reflect the amount of debt they assume. They would then deal with the outstanding monies once they are the owners.
