Can you provide any advice for leasehold conveyancing in Kettering with the intention of speeding up the sale process?

  • Much of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Kettering can be avoided where you appoint lawyers as soon as your agents start marketing the property and request that they start to put together the leasehold documentation needed by the purchasers’ solicitors.
  • If you hold a share in a the freehold, you should make sure that you are holding the original share document. Obtaining a re-issued share certificate is often a lengthy formality and frustrates many a Kettering home move. If a duplicate share certificate is needed, do contact the company director and secretary or managing agents (where relevant) for this at the earliest opportunity. In the event that you altered the property did you need the Landlord’s permission? In particular have you laid down wooden flooring? Kettering leases often stipulate that internal structural changes or laying down wooden flooring necessitate a licence from the Landlord acquiescing to such works. Where you fail to have the paperwork to hand you should not communicate with the landlord without checking with your conveyancer in the first instance. If you have had conflict with your freeholder or managing agents it is essential that these are resolved prior to the flat being put on the market. The purchasers and their solicitors will be reluctant to purchase a property where there is a current dispute. You may have to bite the bullet and pay any arrears of service charge or resolve the dispute prior to completion of the sale. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled prior to the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You will still have to reveal details of the dispute to the buyers, but it is better to present the dispute as historic as opposed to ongoing.
