Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Holloway

I am buying a property mortgage free in Holloway. I have lived for the previous 20 years in Holloway. Conveyancing searches are expensive. As I have knowledge of the area and road very well should I not bother getting the solicitor to do all the conveyancing searches?

If you not getting a home loan, then the vast majority of the Holloway conveyancing searches are optional. Your conveyancer will 'advise', perhaps strongly, that you should have searches done, but she is duty bound to take that path of advice. Do consider; if you are going to sell the house one day, it could be of importance to your prospective purchaser what the searches contain. On occasion houses with functional issues can still reveal unpredicted search results. A good conveyancing solicitor in Holloway should provide you some helpful advice here.

The Holloway conveyancing solicitors that just started acting on my house acquisition in Holloway have without warning closed. I only went with them because I needed a solicitor on the TSB conveyancing panel and my preferred Holloway lawyer was not. I paid them funds on account. What should be my next steps?

Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then inform them straight away so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the TSB conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new lawyers may be able to help.

About to purchase a new build flat in Holloway. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

Set out below are examples of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Holloway

    Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Holloway I like with a park and station nearby, however it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Holloway in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

Should you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.

I need to retain a conveyancing solicitor for my conveyancing in Holloway. I have land on a site which looks to be the ideal answer If there is a chance to get all this stuff completed via web that would be preferable. Should I be wary? What are the potential pitfalls?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?

We are in the middle of buying a residence in Holloway. Conveyancing lawyer has phoned to say the property is "Leasehold". Should this impact our Natwest valuation?

Holloway conveyancing does not in most situations involve leasehold houses. The key factor here is the length of lease and the ground rent. If it's 999 years with a peppercorn rent, it's virtually freehold, so it’s unlikely to impact the value too much.

At the other extreme, if it's, say, 50 years it will have a material impact on the value, and most likely wouldn't be mortgageable. The length of lease and ground rent will be stated in the lease which should be made available to your conveyancing practitioner.
