I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Hounslow is where the house is located. Can you offer any guidance?
Flying freeholds in Hounslow are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Hounslow you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Hounslow may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
Should I be suspicious by 3rd parties that I am dealing with are suggesting a nationwide conveyancing firm as opposed to a local Hounslow conveyancing practice?
As is the case with many service providers, often recommendations from relatives can be extremely useful or valuable. Yet there are numerous people with a keen interest in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, mortgage brokers and lenders might all recommend conveyancers to appoint. Sometimes these conveyancers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but sometimes there is an underlying commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You have the discretion to select your preferred lawyer. However, bear in mind that many lenders specify a panel list of law firms you have to use for the lender aspect of your conveyancing.
I need to find a conveyancing solicitor for my conveyancing in Hounslow. I happened to discover a site which seems to have the perfect solution If it is possible to get all this stuff done via web that would be preferable. Do I need to be concerned? 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?
I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Hounslow. Before diving in I require certainty as to the remaining lease term.
Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Hounslow - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord for a lease extension without getting anywhere. Can I make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Hounslow conveyancing firm to assist?
if there is a absentee landlord or where there is disagreement about what the lease extension should cost, under the relevant legislation it is possible to make an application to the LVT to assess the price.
An example of a Lease Extension case for a Hounslow property is Ground Floor Flat 91 Bath Road in May 2009. in a case where the freeholder could not be traced, the Brentford County Court ordered that the Lease be surrendered in return for the grant of a new lease of the Premises at a premium determined by the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal. The tribunal concluded that the price payable by the Applicant for the new lease of the premises be £15,900 This case was in relation to 1 flat. The unexpired lease term was 60.45 years.
