The Saundersfoot conveyancing firm handling our Saundersfoot conveyancing has uncovered a difference when comparing the assumptions in the home valuation survey and what is revealed within the conveyancing documents. My lawyer says that he is obliged to ensure that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my solicitor’s course or action right?
Your conveyancing practitioner must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.
It is a dozen years since I purchased my property in Saundersfoot. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been appointed on the sale but I am unable to find the deeds. Is this a problem?
Don’t worry too much. Firstly there is a chance that the deeds will be kept by your lender or they could be in the possession of the solicitor who handled your purchase. Secondly the chances are that the title will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors procuring up to date copy of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Saundersfoot relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your home is not registered it is more problematic but is resolvable.
My wife and I have a terraced Edwardian house in Saundersfoot. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and The Royal Bank of Scotland. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, another for leasehold with the matching property. If a house is not a freehold shouldn't I have been informed?
You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register for 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 Saundersfoot and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they buy they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with purchasers. You can also check the position with your conveyancing solicitor who conducted the conveyancing.
I am looking for a flat up to £305k and found one near me in Saundersfoot I like with a park and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Saundersfoot suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you need a mortgage that many years may be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
