How does conveyancing in Midhurst differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Midhurst come to us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Midhurst typically buy the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Midhurst or who has acted in the same development.

I have recently realised that I have 62 years remaining on my flat in Midhurst. I now want to get lease extension but my landlord is missing. What are my options?

On the basis that you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be granted an extra 90 years by the magistrate. You will be obliged to demonstrate that you have done all that could be expected to locate the freeholder. For most situations an enquiry agent may be helpful to conduct investigations and prepare a report to be accepted by the court as evidence that the landlord can not be located. It is wise to seek advice from a conveyancer both on devolving into the landlord’s disappearance and the vesting order request to the County Court overseeing Midhurst.

I bought a 1st floor flat in Midhurst, conveyancing was carried out 8 years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding properties in Midhurst with over 90 years remaining are worth £192,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £55 levied per year. The lease ends on 21st October 2079

With just 54 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £32,300 and £37,400 plus costs.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. Do not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
