I am helping my sister sell her property in Cherry Willingham. Does the conveyancing solicitor arrange the energy assessment or it is for the owner to see to?
Following the demise of HIPs, EPC’s was left as a mandatory element of moving house. An energy performance certificate needs to be to hand prior to the property being advertised. It is not a task that law firms normally organise. If you are using a Cherry Willingham conveyancing lawyer they may help arrange EPC’s given their contacts with long established Cherry Willingham energy assessors

I have paid off my mortgage with Barclays. I assume I don't need a Cherry Willingham property lawyer on the Barclays panel to remove the mortgage at the Land Registry. Am I right?
If you have finished paying off your Barclays mortgage, they may send you evidence showing that you have paid it off. Alternatively they may notify the Land Registry directly. The Land Registry need to see this evidence before they will remove the Barclays mortgage from the register. Barclays, and any evidence they send you, will determine the action you need to take. In cases where no conveyancer is acting for you and you have paid off your mortgage:
- but are not moving to another property
- where Barclays has sent the Land Registry the discharge electronically, and
- Barclays has instructed the Land Registry to do so
I am buying a new build apartment in Cherry Willingham. 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 legal work.
Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Cherry Willingham
-
The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? 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.
My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the selling agent informed us that the owners will only move forward if we use their chosen solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a family conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Cherry Willingham
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this demand. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated purchaser is not the way to achieve this. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and explain that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you intend to instruct your preferred Cherry Willingham conveyancing firm - rather thanthose that will give the estate agent a commission or hit his conveyancing targets pre-set by corporate headquarters.
I have recently realised that I have 72 years unexpired on my lease in Cherry Willingham. I now want to extend my lease but my freeholder is absent. What are my options?
If you meet the appropriate requirements, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be extended by the Court. However, you will be required to prove that you have made all reasonable attempts to find the lessor. On the whole a specialist should be helpful to carry out a search and prepare an expert document to be used as proof that the freeholder is indeed missing. It is advisable to get professional help from a solicitor in relation to devolving into the landlord’s disappearance and the vesting order request to the County Court overseeing Cherry Willingham.
