I have todayfound out that Action Conveyancing have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Notting Hill for a purchase of a freehold house 10 months ago. How can I establish that the property is in my name in the name of the previous owner?
The easiest way to see if the premises is in your name, you can make 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 Notting Hill conveyancing specialists.
How does conveyancing in Notting Hill differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build residence in Notting Hill approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is completed. This is because new home sellers in Notting Hill usually purchase 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 conveyancing solicitors 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 Notting Hill or who has acted in the same development.
Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Notting Hill prior to instructing solicitors. I have been told that there is a flying freehold overhang to the house. The surveyor advised that some banks will not issue a mortgage on such a home.
It varies from the lender to lender. Santander has different requirements for example to Halifax. If you e-mail us we can check via the appropriate lender. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Notting Hill. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Notting Hill to see if the conveyancing will be more expensive.
In what way does the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my commercial offices in Notting Hill and how can you help?
The particular law that you refer to provides a safeguard to business leaseholders, giving them the dueness to apply to court for a continuation of occupancy when the lease comes to an end. There are certain specified grounds where a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are involved. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing firms who use the act for protection and assist with commercial conveyancing in Notting Hill
I own a leasehold flat in Notting Hill. Conveyancing and Lloyds TSB Bank mortgage went though with no issue. A letter has just been received from someone claiming to own the freehold. Attached was a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1997. The conveyancing practitioner in Notting Hill who previously acted has long since retired. What should I do?
First make enquiries of HMLR to be sure that this person is in fact the new freeholder. There is no need to incur the fees of a Notting Hill conveyancing solicitor to do this as it can be done on-line for £3. You should note that regardless, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.
I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord for a lease extension without any joy. Can one make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Notting Hill conveyancing firm to assist?
if there is a absentee landlord or if there is disagreement about the premium for a lease extension, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the LVT to calculate the sum to be paid.
An example of a Lease Extension matter before the tribunal for a Notting Hill flat is 2 Grove House 95 Addison Road in October 2013. the Tribunal decided that the premium to bepaid for a new lease is £50,050. This case related to 1 flat. The unexpired lease term was 68.4 years.
