A friend recommended that where I am buying in Rhosesmor I should ask my conveyancer to perform a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. Can you explain what the purpose of this search is?
A search of this type is sometimes quoted for as part of the standard Rhosesmor conveyancing searches. It is not a small document of about 40 pages, listing and setting out important information about Rhosesmor around the property and the people living there. It incorporates an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the Rhosesmor Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime statistics, Local Education with maps and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful information regarding Rhosesmor.
Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly picked up during conveyancing in Rhosesmor?
Covenants that are restrictive in nature can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Rhosesmor. 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…’
I was advised by a number of estate agents in Rhosesmor to choose a solicitor using your seach tool. Is there a financial advantage for Estate Agents to offer your site over and above another?
We refuse to offer any financial incentive for directing people our way. We thought it would be too underhand a fee as a client could think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not receiving any benefit too?’ We would prefer to grow our business on genuine recommendations.
Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Rhosesmor. Before I get started I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is registered - and most are in Rhosesmor - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
