Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Chapeltown

We are purchasing a flat and require a conveyancing solicitor in Chapeltown who is on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel. Can you recommend a local solicitor?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Coventry BS . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Chapeltown.

My wife and I have a semi-detached Georgian house in Chapeltown. Conveyancing solicitor acted for me and Bank of Ireland. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the matching address. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?

You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for 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 Chapeltown and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage 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 practitioner who conducted the conveyancing.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Chapeltown is where the house is located. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Chapeltown are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Chapeltown you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Chapeltown may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Should I be concerned by third parties that I am dealing with are encouraging me to use a nationwide conveyancing firm rather than a local Chapeltown conveyancing practice?

As is the case with lots of service providers, often suggestions from relatives can be worth their weight in gold. But there are lots of parties with a keen interest in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, mortgage brokers and mortgage companies might all put forward lawyers to retain. Sometimes these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but sometimes there might be a financial incentive behind the endorsement. You are free to select your own conveyancer. Don't forget that the majority of mortgage providers operate an approved list of solicitors you have to use for the lender aspect of your transaction.

I am thinking of appointing a conveyancing lawyer in Chapeltown for my home move. Can I review a firm’s record with the legal regulator?

Anyone may search for presented Solicitor Regulator Association (SRA) decisions stemming from investigations from 2008 onwards. Go to Check a solicitor's record. To find records about the period before 1 January 2008, or to check a firm's history, phone 0870 606 2555, 08.00 - 18.00 any week day save for Tuesday when lines open at 9.30am. For non-uk callers, call +44 (0)121 329 6800. The SRA sometimes recorded telephone calls for training requirements.

Planning to exchange soon on a leasehold property in Chapeltown. Conveyancing lawyers inform me that they report fully on Monday. Are there areas in the report that I should be focusing on?

Your report on title for your leasehold conveyancing in Chapeltown should include some of the following:

    Who has the liability to repair and maintain the block. It is important for you to know who is responsible the repair and maintenance of all parts of the block and communal areas Repair and maintenance of the property The landlord’s rights to access the flat. You should be made aware that your landlord has rights of access as well as be informed how much notice must be provided. How long the lease is.

I inherited a 1st floor flat in Chapeltown, conveyancing having been completed half a dozen years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Equivalent flats in Chapeltown with over 90 years remaining are worth £192,000. The ground rent is £55 per annum. The lease ends on 21st October 2079

With just 54 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £32,300 and £37,400 plus legals.

The figure above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action placing reliance on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
