Can you provide any advice for leasehold conveyancing in Loxford with the intention of saving time on the sale process?
- Much of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Loxford can be reduced if you instruct lawyers the minute your agents start marketing the property and request that they start to put together the leasehold information needed by the buyers’ lawyers. If you have the benefit of shareholding in the Management Company, you should ensure that you hold the original share document. Organising a re-issued share certificate can be a time consuming formality and slows down many a Loxford home move. If a reissued share is required, you should approach the company officers or managing agents (if applicable) for this at the earliest opportunity. A minority of Loxford leases require Licence to Assign from the landlord. If this applies to your lease, it would be prudent to notify your estate agents to make sure that the purchasers put in hand bank and professional references. The bank reference will need to confirm that the buyers are able to meet the annual service charge and the actual amount of the service charge should be quoted in the bank’s letter. You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the service charge figures so that they can pass this information on to the purchasers or their solicitors. The majority of landlords or Management Companies in Loxford levy fees for supplying management packs for a leasehold property. You or your lawyers should enquire as to the fee that they propose to charge. The management information can be applied for on or before finding a buyer, thus reducing delays. The average time it takes to receive management information is three weeks. It is the most frequent cause of frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Loxford.
