Can you provide any top tips for leasehold conveyancing in Cleator Moor from the perspective of saving time on the sale process?
- Much of the delay in leasehold conveyancing in Cleator Moor can be avoided if you get in touch lawyers as soon as your agents start advertising the property and ask them to put together the leasehold information needed by the buyers’ conveyancers. In the event that you altered the property did you need the Landlord’s approval? In particular have you laid down wooden flooring? Cleator Moor leases often stipulate that internal structural alterations or installing wooden flooring calls for a licence from the Landlord acquiescing to such works. Where you dont have the consents to hand you should not contact the landlord without contacting your lawyer in the first instance. If you have had conflict with your freeholder or managing agents it is essential that these are resolved before the property is marketed. The purchasers and their solicitors will be nervous about purchasing a property where there is a current dispute. You may have to bite the bullet and pay any arrears of service charge or settle the dispute prior to the buyers completing the purchase. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled prior to the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You are still duty bound to disclose particulars of the dispute to the buyers, but it is clearly preferable to reveal the dispute as historic rather than ongoing. You may think that you are aware of the number of years remaining on your lease but you should verify this via your solicitors. A purchaser's lawyer will not be happy to advise their client to proceed with the purchase of a leasehold property the remaining number of years is below 75 years. It is therefore essential at an early stage that you consider whether the lease term for your property needs extending. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your home on the market for sale.
