About to purchase a new build flat in Irthlingborough. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

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

    Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Please supply a car parking plan. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one close by in Irthlingborough I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Irthlingborough suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

Should you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.

Harry (my fiance) and I may need to rent out our Irthlingborough garden flat temporarily due to taking a sabbatical. We instructed a Irthlingborough conveyancing practice in 2001 but they have closed and we did not have the foresight to seek any guidance as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?

Even though your previous Irthlingborough conveyancing solicitor is not available you can check your lease to check if you are permitted to let out the property. The rule is that if the deeds are silent, subletting is allowed. There may be a precondition that you need to seek permission from your landlord or some other party in advance of subletting. This means you not allowed to sublet without prior consent. The consent should not be unreasonably withheld. If the lease prohibits you from subletting the property you will need to ask your landlord for their consent.

I am the registered owner of a garden flat in Irthlingborough, conveyancing having been completed half a dozen years ago. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Comparable flats in Irthlingborough with over 90 years remaining are worth £180,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 charged once a year. The lease expires on 21st October 2084

With 59 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £20,900 and £24,200 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to provide a more accurate figure without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other issues that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
