It is unlikely the owners are behind this. If they require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine purchaser is going to damage their objectives.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Leytonstone. Before I get started I require certainty as to the number of years remaining on the lease.

Assuming the lease is registered - and most are in Leytonstone - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars 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.

We have reached the end of our tether in trying to purchase the freehold in Leytonstone. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on premiums?

Most definitely. We can put you in touch with a Leytonstone conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement case for a Leytonstone property is 36 New Wanstead in August 2010. The Tribunal arrived at a valuation of the premium for the freehold of £22,359. This case was in relation to 2 flats. The unexpired residue of the current lease was 73.92 years.

What is the distinction between surveying and conveyancing in Leytonstone?

Conveyancing - in Leytonstone or elsewhere - is the process of legally transferring legal title of property from one person to another. It therefore includes the checking of the title. Whether buying or selling, you should be aware of anything affecting the property such as proposals by government departments, illegal buildings, or outstanding rates. The conveyancer should conduct the appropriate searches and inquiries on the property. Surveying relates to the structure of a property itself. A surveyor will look at a house, flat and any outbuildings you’re purchasing and will help you find out about the condition of the building and, if there are problems, give you leverage for negotiating the purchase price down or asking the vendor to fix the problems prior to you move in.
