My partner and I swapping mortgage lender for our penthouse in Cullompton with Co-operative. We have a son 19 who lives with us. Our solicitor requested us to identify anyone over the age of 17 other than ourselves who reside at the property. The solicitor has now sent a form for our son to sign, giving up any rights in the event that the property is repossessed. I have a couple of questions (1) Is this document specific to the Co-operative conveyancing panel as he did not need to sign this form when we purchased 3 years ago (2) In signing this form is our son in any way compromising his right to inherit the property?
On the face of it your lawyer has done nothing wrong as it is established procedure for any occupier who is aged 17 or over to sign the necessary Consent Form, which is purely to state that any rights he has in the property are postponed and secondary to Co-operative. This is solely used to protect Co-operative if the property were re-possessed so that in such circumstances, your son would be legally obliged to leave. It does not impact your son’s right to inherit the apartment. Please note that if your son were to inherit and the mortgage in favour of Co-operative had not been discharged, he would be liable to take over the loan or pay it off, but other than that, there is nothing stopping him from keeping the property in accordance with your will or the rules of intestacy.

As far as conveyancing in Cullompton is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry have to notify any other persons or bodies. Currently approximately 80% of such applications are fully addressed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted hold-ups. Registration occurs once the new owner is living at the premises therefore an expedited registration is not typically an essential issue yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers should speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

-
Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Cullompton is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Cullompton are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Cullompton you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Cullompton may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
Me and my wife have recently had a bid accepted on our first house in Cullompton, and are now looking to get solicitors appointed. We have made use of the numerous rating tools and the results are from all over the country. Is it important to have a Cullompton property lawyer local to your potential property? I am fine to do all the communicating electronically, but I am thinking at some stage we will be required to visit the property lawyer's office to sign papers?
Generally there is no requirement to physically visit the office of your conveyancer, they can post any relevant contracts to you, which you can sign and return. Many home movers choose to use a locally based solicitor, but it's by no means essential for conveyancing in Cullompton.
