Do you have any top tips for leasehold conveyancing in Royton with the intention of saving time on the sale process?

  • Much of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Royton can be reduced if you get in touch lawyers the minute your agents start advertising the property and request that they start to put together the leasehold information which will be required by the buyers’ solicitors.
  • You may think that you are aware of the number of years remaining on your lease but it would be wise to verify this via your lawyers. A buyer’s lawyer will not be happy to advise their client to to exchange contracts if the lease term is under 80 years. In the circumstances it is essential at an as soon as possible that you identify whether the lease term requires a lease extension. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your premises on the market for sale. In the event that you altered the property did you need the Landlord’s consent? Have you, for example laid down wooden flooring? Royton leases often stipulate that internal structural alterations or installing wooden flooring necessitate a licence from the Landlord consenting to such changes. If you fail to have the consents in place do not contact the landlord without contacting your conveyancer in the first instance. A minority of Royton leases require Landlord’s consent to the sale and approval of the buyers. If this applies to your lease, you should place the estate agents on notice to make sure that the purchasers obtain financial (bank) and professional references. Any bank reference should make it clear that the buyer is able to meet the yearly service charge and the actual amount of the service charge should be quoted in the bank’s letter. You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the service charge figures so that they can pass this information on to the purchasers or their solicitors.

I own a leasehold flat in Royton, conveyancing was carried out 10 years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Corresponding flats in Royton with an extended lease are worth £176,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 yearly. The lease runs out on 21st October 2106

With only 80 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £7,600 and £8,800 plus legals.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed due diligence. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be additional issues that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information before getting professional advice.
