My Minera lawyer has uncovered a discrepancy when comparing the surveyor’s assumptions in the valuation survey and what is revealed within the title deeds. My lawyer informs me that he is obliged to check that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my solicitor’s approach right?
Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for you.
Should my conveyancer be making enquiries about flooding as part of the conveyancing in Minera.
Flooding is a growing risk for lawyers dealing with homes in Minera. Some people will acquire a house in Minera, fully expectant that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical damage, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, adequate insurance cover, or sell the premises. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.
Conveyancers are not best placed to impart advice on flood risk, however there are a number of searches that may be undertaken by the purchaser or on a buyer’s behalf which will give them a better understanding of the risks in Minera. The conventional set of property information forms supplied to a purchaser’s solicitor (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) contains a standard question of the seller to discover whether the premises has historically flooded. If the property has been flooded in past and is not notified by the seller, then a purchaser may commence a compensation claim as a result of such an misleading answer. A purchaser’s conveyancers may also conduct an enviro report. This should higlight whether there is a recorded flood risk. If so, further investigations will need to be carried out.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on a fortnight ago in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Minera is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Minera are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Minera you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Minera may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Minera. Before I get started I want to be sure as to the remaining lease term.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and almost all are in Minera - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details 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.
I acquired a 2 bed flat in Minera, conveyancing having been completed in 2007. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Corresponding properties in Minera with an extended lease are worth £227,000. The ground rent is £50 levied per year. The lease runs out on 21st October 2096
With only 72 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as costs.
The figure above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive investigations. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other concerns that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
I need to swap lawyers as my Minera lawyer is not on the lender's approved list of conveyancing solicitors. How simple is it to change conveyancer?
In the event that you have not formally appointed a solicitor to start work and at this stage simply received an estimate as to costs, you're perfectly free to choose a different solicitor to carry out your work for you. The best way is to get recommendations from friends or family who have actually used the solicitor or conveyancer in Minera that you're considering.
