Why is leasehold purchase conveyancing in Kew costs more?
In summary, leasehold conveyancing in Kew and elsewhere usually requires extra work compared to freehold transactions. This includes analysing the lease terms, liaising with the landlord concerning serving required notices, securing up-to-date service charge and management information, procuring the freeholder’s consents and reviewing management accounts. The obligations on both the landlord and the tenant in the lease need to be studied by the buyer’s conveyancing team and read from beginning to end – no matter how many different proprietor have owned the lease since it was first granted.

I am intent on selling our property in Kew and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. Any high street Kew lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers are using an internet conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Kew. Having lived in Kew for three years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)
I decided to have a survey carried out on a house in Kew ahead of appointing lawyers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the house. My surveyor advised that some mortgage companies may not issue a loan on this type of house.
It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different instructions from Nationwide. If you contact us we can look into this further with the relevant mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Kew. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Kew to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.

Kew conveyancing search charges are separate expenses not solicitors fees as these are paid to independent parties.
