Do you have any top tips for leasehold conveyancing in Hale Barns from the perspective of expediting the sale process?
- Much of the delay in leasehold conveyancing in Hale Barns can be reduced if you appoint lawyers as soon as your agents start marketing the property and request that they start to put together the leasehold information which will be required by the purchasers’ conveyancers. If there is a history of any disputes with your landlord or managing agents it is essential that these are settled before the property is marketed. The purchasers and their solicitors will be concerned about purchasing a flat where there is an ongoing dispute. You will have to accept that you will have to 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 details of the dispute to the buyers, but it is better to present the dispute as over rather than ongoing. The majority of landlords or managing agents in Hale Barns charge for providing management packs for a leasehold home. You or your lawyers should discover the actual amount of the charges. The management pack sought on or before finding a buyer, thus accelerating the process. The average time it takes to obtain the necessary information is three weeks. It is the most usual cause of frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Hale Barns. In the event that you altered the property did you need the Landlord’s permission? Have you, for example laid down wooden flooring? Hale Barns leases often stipulate that internal structural changes or addition of wooden flooring require a licence from the Landlord consenting to such works. If you dont have the consents in place do not contact the landlord without contacting your solicitor first. If you have the benefit of shareholding in the Management Company, you should make sure that you hold the original share document. Arranging a new share certificate can be a time consuming process and delays many a Hale Barns conveyancing transaction. Where a duplicate share certificate is needed, you should approach the company officers or managing agents (if applicable) for this as soon as possible.

I am just shy of a 10% deposit on my flat purchase in Hale Barns , but I still want to proceed. What can I do?
One option is to try and agree a smaller deposit. Many property owners will accept a smaller deposit or even no deposit for a first time buyer or 100% mortgage. Be aware though that if you fail to complete you will still need to hand over a minimum of 10% of the purchase price regardless of how much deposit was agreed.
You can also agree a simultaneous exchange and completion as no deposit is required for this however neither party will be tied in until completion actually takes place and it can be risky if sellers change their mind at the last minute
