Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Charterhouse

We hired a Charterhouse based solicitor for my conveyancing in Charterhouse yesterday. After carefully reading the Ts and Cs I seewe are liable for charges even where the transaction does not complete. Should I go with them or appoint an on-line solicitor practice who offer no completion no cost conveyancing in Charterhouse?

Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is available then the fee levels will tend to be be more expensive to counteract the cases that do not proceed. Please beware that such arrangements generally do not cover expenditure such your Charterhouse conveyancing search charges.

I require fast conveyancing in Charterhouse as I am under an ultimatum to sign on the dotted line in less than 3 weeks. Thankfully I do not require a mortgage. Is it possible to decline from having conveyancing searches to save money and time?

If.Given you are not obtaining a mortgage you are at free not to do searches although no conveyancer would advise that you don't. Drawing on our experience of conveyancing in Charterhouse the following are instances of issues that can appear and therefore impact future saleability: Enforcement Actions, Outstanding Fees, Outstanding Grants, Railway Schemes,...

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to our house are lost. The conveyancers who dealt with the conveyancing in Charterhouse 4 years ago have long since closed. What are my options?

As long as the title is registered the details of your ownership will be documented by HMLR with a Title Number. It is easy to carry out a search at the Land Registry, find your property and get current copies of the property title for less than a fiver. Where the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will also normally retain a file copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be ordered for £20 inclusive of VAT.

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Charterhouse. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Charterhouse

    Please supply a car parking plan. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose?

I have been advised by a number of property agents in Charterhouse to locate a conveyancer on your site. What’s the financial upside for Estate Agents to offer your services over alternative conveyancing organisations?

We don’t make any commission for sending work our way. We thought it would be too underhand to pay a commission as members of the public would think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

All being well we will complete the sale of our £300,000 maisonette in Charterhouse in just under a week. The landlords agents has quoted £408 for Landlord’s certificate, building insurance schedule and 3 years service charge statements. Is the landlord entitled to charge exorbitant fees for a flat conveyance in Charterhouse?

Charterhouse conveyancing on leasehold flats normally necessitates fees being levied by landlords agents :

    Answering pre-exchange enquiries Where consent is required before sale in Charterhouse Supplying insurance information Deeds of covenant upon sale Registering of the assignment of the change of lessee after a sale
Your lawyer will have no control over the level of the charges for this information but the average costs for the information for Charterhouse leasehold premises is £350. For Charterhouse conveyancing transactions it is customary for the seller to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer such questions most will be willing to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices where the fees bear little relation to the work involved. Unfortunately there is no law that requires fixed charges for administrative tasks. Neither is there any legal time frame by which they are required to supply the information.

Having spent years of dialogue we cannot agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Charterhouse. Can we issue an application to the Residential Property Tribunal Service?

Most certainly. We are happy to put you in touch with a Charterhouse conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Lease Extension matter before the tribunal for a Charterhouse premises is Flat 89 Trinity Court Grays Inn Road in February 2013. the Tribunal found that the premium to be paid by the tenant on the grant of a new lease, in accordance with section 56 and Schedule 13 to the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 should be £36,229. This case affected 1 flat. The number of years remaining on the existing lease(s) was 66.8 years.
