Can you provide any top tips for leasehold conveyancing in Clare from the point of view of expediting the sale process?

  • A significant proportion of the delay in leasehold conveyancing in Clare can be bypassed if you appoint lawyers the minute you market your property and request that they start to put together the leasehold documentation which will be required by the purchasers’ representatives.
    • If there is a history of any disputes with your landlord or managing agents it is very important that these are settled before the property is marketed. The purchasers and their solicitors will be warry about purchasing a flat where there is a current dispute. You may need to swallow your pride and discharge any arrears of service charge or resolve the dispute prior to the buyers completing the purchase. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled ahead of the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You will still have to reveal details of the dispute to the purchasers, but it is better to present the dispute as historic as opposed to unresolved. In the event that you altered the property did you need the Landlord’s approval? In particular have you laid down wooden flooring? Clare leases often stipulate that internal structural alterations or installing wooden flooring require a licence from the Landlord approving such works. Where you dont have the paperwork to hand do not communicate with the landlord without contacting your solicitor in advance. The majority of landlords or managing agents in Clare charge for supplying management packs for a leasehold premises. You or your lawyers should discover the actual amount of the charges. The management pack sought on or before finding a buyer, thus reducing delays. The typical amount of time it takes to receive management information is three weeks. It is the most common reason for delay in leasehold conveyancing in Clare.
