Following your disposal your conveyancer should deliver the transfer deeds and all of the paperwork to the buyer’s solicitors. Depending on the transaction, your conveyancer should also confirm that the legal charge in favour of the lender has been discharged to the purchasers conveyancers. There are no post completion procedures unique to conveyancing in South Croydon.

I wish to rent out my leasehold flat in South Croydon. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Is permission from the freeholder required?
Some leases for properties in South Croydon do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord cannot unreasonably refuse but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting permission.
I inherited a ground floor flat in South Croydon. Given that I can not reach agreement with the landlord, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal make a decision on the amount payable for a lease extension?
if there is a missing freeholder or where there is disagreement about the premium for a lease extension, under the relevant statutes it is possible to make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal to make a decision on the amount due.
An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement decision for a South Croydon flat is The Woodlands 95 Purley Park Road in April 2009. The Tribunals own valuation produced the figure of £37,912. This case affected 6 flats. The unexpired lease term was 78.32 years.
