How does conveyancing in Bucklesham differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Bucklesham contact us having been asked by the builder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because developers in Bucklesham usually acquire the site, 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 used to new build conveyancing in Bucklesham or who has acted in the same development.

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

Your lease dictates relations between the freeholder and you the leaseholder; specifically, it will indicate if subletting is prohibited, or permitted but only subject to certain conditions. The accepted inference is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is permitted. The majority of leases in Bucklesham do not contain an absolute prevention of subletting – such a clause would undoubtedly devalue the flat. Instead, there is usually simply a requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly supplying a duplicate of the tenancy agreement.

I am the registered owner of a 1 bedroom flat in Bucklesham, conveyancing was carried out 10 years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Corresponding properties in Bucklesham with an extended lease are worth £170,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 levied per year. The lease ceases on 21st October 2104

With just 78 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £7,600 and £8,800 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive due diligence. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
