I am buying a new build apartment in Stallingborough. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Set out below are examples of a selection of leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Stallingborough

    Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Stallingborough is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Stallingborough are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Stallingborough you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Stallingborough may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent told us that the vendor will only issue a contract if we instruct the agent's chosen solicitors as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street solicitor used to conveyancing in Stallingborough

It is unlikely the sellers are behind this. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you will continue to use your own,trusted Stallingborough conveyancing lawyers - rather thanthose that will give the negotiator at the agency a commission or meet his conveyancing targets demanded by head office.

    In the main the cost for major works are not incorporated into the service charges, albeit that some managing agents in Stallingborough require tenants to contribute towards a reserve fund created for the specific intention of establishing a fund for larger works. The prefered form of lease arrangement is a share of the freehold. In this arrangement the lessees have control and although a managing agent is often retained if it is larger than a house conversion, the managing agent is directed by the tenants.
