Should our lawyer be raising enquiries regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Bury.
Flooding is a growing risk for lawyers specialising in conveyancing in Bury. Plenty of people will buy a house in Bury, completely expectant that at some time, it may be flooded. However, aside from the physical destruction, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, adequate building insurance, or dispose of the property. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.
Solicitors are not qualified to offer advice on flood risk, however there are a various checks that may be undertaken by the purchaser or by their lawyers which can figure out the risks in Bury. The standard completed inquiry forms supplied to a buyer’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a standard question of the seller to determine whether the property has historically flooded. In the event that flooding has previously occurred which is not notified by the vendor, then a buyer could bring a legal claim for losses stemming from an inaccurate response. A buyer’s solicitors should also carry out an enviro search. This will disclose if there is any known flood risk. If so, more detailed inquiries will need to be made.
It has been three months since my purchase conveyancing in Bury concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. 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 am looking for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Bury I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Bury suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
