I have recentlybeen informed that Wolstenholmes have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Edgware for a purchase of a leasehold flat 10 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is in my name in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest way to check if the property is in your name, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Edgware conveyancing specialists.
How does conveyancing in Edgware differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Edgware contact us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is finished. This is because new home sellers in Edgware typically buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Edgware or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Edgware I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Edgware for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a short lease?
If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.
What happens where there is an issue with the searches carried out as part of my conveyancing in Edgware?
Normally, the majority of issues disclosed in Edgware conveyancing search results can be addressed before completion or title insurance can be taken. You should note that regardless of the fact that you are acquiring the premises and may be content to live with the search results, your mortgage lender may not, and ultimately they have the final say.
