I am expecting a offer of a home loan from Nat West. I intend to employ the services of a Licensed Conveyancer in Peterlee. Does the Nat West Solicitor panel allow for conveyancers regulated by the CLC?

The conveyancing charges for a leasehold property in Peterlee is often greater than on a freehold transaction. This is because there is an amount of extra time necessary in dealing with the landlord and managing agents to obtain evidence concerning whether the rent and maintenance charges have been cleared and whether there are any significant expenditure in the foreseeable future on repairs or maintenance of the building.

Me and my brother own a renovated Victorian property in Peterlee. Conveyancing lawyer acted for me and Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. I thought I was buying a freehold how can I check?
You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Peterlee and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with lenders. You can also check the position with the conveyancing practitioner who carried out the work.

The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. 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. The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.
