What is the first thing I need to know about purchase conveyancing in Olney?
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Olney and elsewhere in England and Wales is often a confrontational experience. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists lots of room for conflict between you and other parties involved in the ownership transfer. For example, the vendor, property agent and even potentially the lender. Appointing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Olney is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE party in the transaction whose role it is to look after your legal interests and to keep you safe.
We are witnessing a distinct ongoing adversarial element to conveyancing- someone must be blamed for the process taking so long. You should always trust your solicitor above all other parties in the conveyancing process.
It has been three months since my purchase conveyancing in Olney concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease.
