My partner and I are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our property in Rainhill and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. Any local lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers instructed a national conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Rainhill. Having lived in Rainhill for 5 years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to get confirmation need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm already. 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 life insurance to cover that same sickness)
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified as part of conveyancing in Rainhill?
Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the legal transfer of property in Rainhill. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
How does conveyancing in Rainhill differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Rainhill approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is constructed. This is because house builders in Rainhill usually acquire 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 conveyancers 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 accustomed to new build conveyancing in Rainhill or who has acted in the same development.
I am looking at a two flats in Rainhill which have in the region of fifty years left on the leases. should I be concerned?
A lease is a right to use the premises for a period of time. As a lease gets shorter the marketability of the lease decreases and results in it becoming more costly to extend the lease. For this reason it is advisable to extend the lease term. It is often difficult to sell a property with a short lease because mortgage lenders may be reluctant to lend money on such properties. Lease extension can be a difficult process. We recommend you get professional help from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this field.
