It is a dozen years since I bought my home in Drybrook. Conveyancing lawyers have just been retained on the sale but I am unable to locate my deeds. Will this cause complications?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be retained by your lender or they may stored with the lawyers who oversaw your purchase. Secondly the chances are that the property will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors procuring current official copies of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in Drybrook involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.

Set out below is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Drybrook

    Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared.

I'm remortgaging my primary property to a BTL loan with Santander and intend to use the remaining equity towards a second house. The neighborhood we are interested in is Drybrook. Will your conveyancers be able to act for the two banks and link together the transactions?

Do use our search tool on this page to ensure that the conveyancers are approved by both mortgage companies. Assuming that they are your conveyancer should be able to simultaneously deal with the two transactions but you should have a chat with you solicitor and make apparent your desired outcome and requirements.

I wish to rent out my leasehold apartment in Drybrook. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask her. Is permission from the freeholder required?

Some leases for properties in Drybrook do contain a provision to say that subletting is only allowed with permission. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably refuse but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.

I am the registered owner of a 2 bed flat in Drybrook, conveyancing formalities finalised half a dozen years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding flats in Drybrook with over 90 years remaining are worth £265,000. The ground rent is £50 invoiced every year. The lease ceases on 21st October 2101

With only 76 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £8,600 and £9,800 plus legals.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
