We were going to get a OIP from Kent Reliance this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Kent Reliance recommend any Charlton solicitors on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?

You will need to appoint Charlton solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Kent Reliance through the process.

I have a mortgage with Kent Reliance for my property in Charlton. Conveyancing was finalised 12 months ago. If I am intending 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 Kent Reliance?

You must advise Kent Reliance in advance of letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Kent Reliance’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Kent Reliance 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 Kent Reliance directly. It should not be necessary to do this via a Kent Reliance conveyancing panel solicitor.

Our sealed bid on a detached house in Charlton has been accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have placed an offer on somewhere, however it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other apartments in the pipeline. I have instructed a high street conveyancing solicitor in Charlton. What should be my next step? At what stage should I apply for the mortgage with Aldermore?

It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (home loan application is approx £1k, then survey, Charlton conveyancing search fees, etc). The first course of action is to check that your solicitor is on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Regarding the next stages this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your case, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a hot market some buyers will apply for a home loan with Aldermore and pay for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they request their lawyer to move forward with the conveyancing in Charlton.

I have justbecome aware that Stirling Law have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Charlton for a purchase of a freehold house 18 months ago. How can I establish that the property is in my name in the name of the former proprietor?

The quickest way to check if the premises is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Charlton conveyancing specialists.

Helen (my wife) and I may need to let out our Charlton 1st floor flat temporarily due to taking a sabbatical. We instructed a Charlton conveyancing practice in 2004 but they have closed and we did not have the foresight to seek any guidance as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?

Some leases for properties in Charlton do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably refuse but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience dictates that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting permission.

I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord to extend my lease without success. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal decide on such issues? Can you recommend a Charlton conveyancing firm to represent me?

You certainly can. We can put you in touch with a Charlton conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Lease Extension matter before the tribunal for a Charlton flat is 73 Walerand Road in August 2012. the result of the findings of the Tribunal led to a premium to be paid for the extended lease in respect of Flat 73 in the sum of £10,040. The premium applicable in respect of Flat 85 was £5,710. This case affected 2 flats. The remaining number of years on the lease was 72 years.

I'm buying a flat in Charlton. I have found my conveyancer's company on the CLC list, but I can't locate my conveyancer's name as listed on the regulator's website. Is this a big problem?

Not all staff in the law firm must be listed by the regulator. As long there is a manager qualified to 'oversee' the transaction, the actual day-to-day activity can be undertaken by unlicensed staff.
