My wife and I purchased a leasehold house in Holloway. Conveyancing and Virgin Money mortgage went though with no issue. A letter has just been received from someone saying they have taken over the reversionary interest in the property. Attached was a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1992. The conveyancing solicitor in Holloway who previously acted has now retired. Any advice?
First make enquiries of the Land Registry to make sure that this person is in fact the registered owner of the freehold reversion. You do not need to instruct a Holloway conveyancing firm to do this as it can be done on-line for £3. You should note that regardless, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

Me and my husband are first time buyers just having agreed a price on a property in Holloway, and are now looking to get solicitors lined up. I have used the different rating based websites and the results are from all across the the UK. Is it essential to have a Holloway lawyer local to your prospective new home? I am content to do all the communicating over the internet, but I am thinking at some stage we may need to attend the lawyer's office to sign documents?
Generally there is no requirement to attend the office of your property lawyer, they can send any relevant papers to you, which you can sign and return. Many buyers and sellers prefer to instruct a locally based solicitor, but it's by no means a prerequisite for conveyancing in Holloway.
