As a novice what is the most important advice you can impart concerning purchase conveyancing in Castle Bromwich?

You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Castle Bromwich or throughout England and Wales is often a confrontational process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists lots of room for friction between you and others involved in the legal transfer of property. For instance, the seller, selling agent and sometimes the bank. Appointing a law firm for your conveyancing in Castle Bromwich is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the legal process whose responsibility is to look after your best interests and to protect you.

There is a worrying increase in the "blame" culture- someone has to be at fault for the process taking so long. You must always trust your conveyancer ahead of all other players when it comes to the legal transfer of property.

The mortgage over my property is with Co-operative for my property in Castle Bromwich. Conveyancing has been completed 12 months ago. Should I wish to rent out my property and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Co-operative?

Co-operative must be informed of your intention before renting your property as this is likely to be a breach of Co-operative’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Co-operative will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Co-operative directly. You need not do this via a Co-operative conveyancing panel firm.

I am buying a new build flat in Castle Bromwich. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

Here are examples of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Castle Bromwich

    The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in Castle Bromwich I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Castle Bromwich in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.

I am a negotiator for a busy estate agency in Castle Bromwich where we see a number of flat sales put at risk due to short leases. I have received inconsistent advice from local Castle Bromwich conveyancing firms. Could you clarify whether the owner of a flat can instigate the lease extension formalities for the buyer?

As long as the seller has owned the lease for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer need not have to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed before, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.

An alternative approach is to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.
