Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hoddesdon

It is is a decade since I bought my property in Hoddesdon. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been instructed on the sale but I can't track down my title deeds. Is this a problem?

You need not be too concerned. First the deeds may be with your mortgage company or they may be in the possession of the solicitor who oversaw your purchase. Secondly the chances are that the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Hoddesdon involves registered property but in the rare situation where your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The lender mentioned the loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to use their panel conveyancer as I would much rather use a high street conveyancing solicitor in Hoddesdon?

Do check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel conveyancers should you want the "fee-free" deal. Speak to the mortgage company and ask if they allow a cash alternative. In the past a few lenders offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Hoddesdon.

Will commercial conveyancing searches reveal planned roadworks that could impact a commercial estate in Hoddesdon?

Its becoming the norm that commercial conveyancing solicitors in Hoddesdon will carry out a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers spend in sourcing accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Hoddesdon. The report provides definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Hoddesdon.

Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

I only have Sixty One years left on my lease in Hoddesdon. I now want to extend my lease but my landlord is can not be found. What are my options?

If you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for for permission to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be lengthened by the Court. However, you will be required to demonstrate that you or your lawyers have done all that could be expected to track down the freeholder.

I purchased a 2 bed flat in Hoddesdon, conveyancing formalities finalised in 2008. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Equivalent flats in Hoddesdon with over 90 years remaining are worth £195,000. The ground rent is £45 invoiced annually. The lease expires on 21st October 2088

With just 63 years unexpired the likely cost is going to span between £16,200 and £18,600 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
