Have completed on a a terraced house in Waltham Cross , how long will it take for the Land Registry to register my title? My Waltham Cross conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to be certain that my purchase is registered.

As far as conveyancing in Waltham Cross registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ according to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry need to notify any 3rd persons or bodies. As of today approximately 80% of submission are fully dealt with within 12 days but some can be subject to longer delays. Registration takes place once the buyer is living at the property therefore an expedited registration is not usually top priority but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your solicitor must speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I decided to have a survey done on a property in Waltham Cross in advance of appointing conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. My surveyor advised that some mortgage companies may refuse to grant a mortgage on a flying freehold premises.

I am looking at a two flats in Waltham Cross both have about fifty years remaining on the leases. Will this present a problem?

There are plenty of short leases in Waltham Cross. The lease is a legal document that entitles you to use the property for a period of time. As the lease gets shorter the saleability of the lease deteriorates and results in it becoming more expensive to acquire a lease extension. This is why it is advisable to extend the lease term. More often than not it is difficult to sell a property with a short lease as mortgage lenders may be unwilling to lend money on properties of this type. Lease enfranchisement can be a protracted process. We recommend you get professional assistance from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this area.

I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord to extend my lease without any joy. Can one apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Waltham Cross conveyancing firm to act on my behalf?

Following a vesting order by Edmonton County Court on 23rd December 2008 (case number 8ED064) the Tribunal decided that the price that the Applicant for the freehold interest should pay is £8,689.00 This case was in relation to 2 flats. The remaining number of years on the lease was 80.01 years.
