Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Haydon Bridge

I own a freehold house in Haydon Bridge yet invoiced for rent, why is this and what is this?

It’s unusual for properties in Haydon Bridge and has limited impact for conveyancing in Haydon Bridge but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges have existed for many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.

Previous rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence in 2037 is to be extinguished.

We are buying a newbuild apartment in Haydon Bridge with a mortgage from Leeds Building Society.We have a Haydon Bridge conveyancing lawyer but Leeds Building Society says her practice is not listed on their approved list of firms. We have to appoint a Leeds Building Society panel firm or retain our local solicitor and fork out for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The home loan offered to you contains various provisions, one of which will be that conveyancers will be on the Leeds Building Society approved list. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could find one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Leeds Building Society

I have been advised by my solicitor that restrictive coveneant insurance is needed on my purchase. What is the level of cover for Haydon Bridge conveyancing?
