Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Chadwell Heath

The owners have very brash sellers who has insisted on a exclusivity contract with a non-refundable deposit two thousand pounds. Is it wise to enter into such agreements?

There are two main downsides with entering into any lock out agreement (sometimes referred to as an exclusivity agreement) is that it diverts attention away from moving forward with the conveyancing process, so unless it requires little or no negotiation then it may transpire to be unhelpful. It is not particularly popular by Chadwell Heath conveyancing lawyers for this reason. A supplemental concern is the extent of the remedies available - a jilted buyer should not expect to be issued with an injunctive ruling by a court to prohibit the owner completing the sale to another buyer, so the only remedy open via the contract will be the recovery of abortive costs and, in rare scenarios, the additional payment of damages.

We wanted to use a property lawyer in Chadwell Heath for our home move. Our financial adviser has since notified us that our mortgage company National Westminster Bank won't deal with them. Surely this is unduly restrictive?

My husband and I have arranged a further advance on our home loan from Bank of Ireland as we want to carry out improvements to our home in Chadwell Heath. Are we obliged to choose a bricks and mortar Chadwell Heath solicitor on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?

I currently have a mortgage with Leeds Building Society for my property in Chadwell Heath. Conveyancing has been completed a year ago. Should I wish to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Leeds Building Society?

Leeds Building Society must be informed of your intention in advance of letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Leeds Building Society’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies 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 Leeds Building Society directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel firm.

I have a semi-detached Edwardian property in Chadwell Heath. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Virgin Money. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold with the exact same property. Is it worth asking Virgin Money to clarify?

You should review the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Chadwell Heath and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also enquire as to the situation with the conveyancing solicitor who conducted the work.

If you are instructing a solicitor for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Chadwell Heath conveyancing practice) it is most important that they be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of conveyancing. We advise that you talk with several firms including non Chadwell Heath conveyancing practices before you instructing a firm. If the firm is ALEP accredited then that’s a bonus. The following questions might be useful:

    If the firm is not ALEP accredited then what is the reason?

I am the registered owner of a ground floor flat in Chadwell Heath. Given that I can not reach agreement with the landlord, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal determine the premium due for a lease extension?

Where there is a missing freeholder or where there is disagreement about the premium for a lease extension, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to calculate the sum to be paid.

An example of a Lease Extension decision for a Chadwell Heath property is 49 Aldborough Road South in July 2012. The Tribunal decided that the premium payable for the grant of the new lease was £13,925 This case affected 1 flat. The unexpired lease term was 61.36 years.
