Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Edenthorpe

It is is a decade since I acquired my house in Edenthorpe. Conveyancing lawyers have now been appointed on the sale but I can't track down my deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?

Don’t worry too much. First the deeds may be retained by the mortgage company or they may still be with the lawyers who acted in the purchase. Secondly in most cases the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Edenthorpe relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my home are lost. The conveyancers who dealt with the conveyancing in Edenthorpe 10 years ago have long since closed. What are my options?

Assuming you have a registered title the details of your ownership will be retained by the Land Registry with a Title Number. It is possible to execute a search at the Land Registry, find your house and order current copies of the property title for less than a fiver. If the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will usually hold a certified duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be ordered for a small fee.

I have been recommended by a number of property agents in Edenthorpe to get a quote from a conveyancer on your site. Is there a financial incentive for Estate Agents to market your lawyers over and above a competitor’s?

We don’t give any commission for directing people to this site. We thought it would be too underhand a fee because members of the public would think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.

I am hoping to put an offer on a small detached house that seems to meet my requirements, at a great figure which is making it all the more appealing. I have subsequently discovered that it's a leasehold as opposed to freehold. I am assuming that there are particular concerns buying a house with a leasehold title in Edenthorpe. Conveyancing advisers have are soon to be appointed. Will they explain the issues?

The majority of houses in Edenthorpe are freehold and not leasehold. In this scenario it’s worth having a local solicitor used to dealing with such properties who can help the conveyancing process. It is clear that you are purchasing in Edenthorpe so you should seriously consider looking for a Edenthorpe conveyancing solicitor and check that they have experience in advising on leasehold houses. As a matter of priority you will need to check the unexpired lease term. Being a tenant you will not be at liberty to do whatever you want to the property. The lease comes with conditions for example requiring the landlord’spermission to carry out alterations. It may be necessary to pay a contribution towards the maintenance of the communal areas where the house is located on an estate. Your solicitor will report to you on the legal implications.

I am the registered owner of a split level flat in Edenthorpe, conveyancing was carried out half a dozen years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Comparable flats in Edenthorpe with over 90 years remaining are worth £186,000. The ground rent is £55 charged once a year. The lease ceases on 21st October 2078

With only 53 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £27,600 and £31,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

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 without more comprehensive investigations. Do not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.

I have finally had an offer on an maisonette in Edenthorpe agreed to, the owner does nevertheless have a tied purchase. The owners have submitted an offer on a property, however it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other flats booked. I have selected a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Edenthorpe. What do I do now? When should I get the mortgage application with HSBC started with HSBC?

It is understandable to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then survey, Edenthorpe conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you must ensure that your lawyer is on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Regarding the next stages this very much dictated by the circumstances of your transaction, desire for this property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market some buyers will apply for the mortgage with HSBC and pay for the survey and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their conveyancing practitioner to move forward with searches.
