I am close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Moor Row and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A high street Moor Row conveyancer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used a nationwide conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Moor Row. Having lived in Moor Row for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get clarification that the buyers are looking for.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You need to 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 health insurance to cover that same illness)
I have justfound out that Arc property Solicitors have closed. They conducted my conveyancing in Moor Row for a purchase of a freehold house 10 months ago. How can I check that the property is in my name in the name of the former proprietor?
The easiest way to check if the premises is registered to you, you can carry out a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Moor Row conveyancing specialists.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Moor Row I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Moor Row in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.
