I have justbeen informed that Stirling Law have been shut down. They carried out my conveyancing in Rhiwderin for a purchase of a freehold house 12 months ago. How can I establish that the property is registered correctly in the name of the former proprietor?
The quickest way to check 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 Rhiwderin conveyancing specialists.
I'm buying my first flat in Rhiwderin benefiting from help to buy. The sellers refused to reduce the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The estate agent suggested that I not reveal to my lawyer about the side-deal as it will adversely affect my mortgage with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

There are only 68 years remaining on my lease in Rhiwderin. I now wish to get lease extension but my freeholder is missing. What are my options?
On the basis that you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will mean that your lease can be extended by the magistrate. However, you will be required to prove that you have done all that could be expected to track down the landlord. For most situations an enquiry agent should be useful to carry out a search and to produce a report which can be used as evidence that the freeholder can not be located. It is wise to seek advice from a solicitor both on devolving into the landlord’s absence and the application to the County Court overseeing Rhiwderin.
I acquired a 2 bed flat in Rhiwderin, conveyancing was carried out 10 years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Comparable properties in Rhiwderin with over 90 years remaining are worth £211,000. The ground rent is £50 invoiced every year. The lease ends on 21st October 2093
With just 68 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as costs.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. Do not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
