  • 4 Walworth conveyancers work in partnership with Walworth estate agents, developers, surveyors, lenders and other professionals to make sure that a quality service is offered to buyers and sellers every step of the way, ensuring the smoothest, most stress-free process possible
  • 5 Low cost packages from online conveyancers might be tempting. However, these companies are often located hundreds of kilometers away with little understanding of the factors that affect property transactions in Walworth

4 months have gone by following my purchase conveyancing in Walworth concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I work for a reputable estate agent office in Walworth where we have witnessed a few flat sales derailed due to leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received conflicting advice from local Walworth conveyancing firms. Please can you confirm whether the vendor of a flat can start the lease extension process for the purchaser on completion of the sale?

Provided that the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to commence the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the proposed purchaser can avoid having to sit tight for 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or at the same time as completion of the sale.

Alternatively, it may be possible to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the buyer.

After years of correspondence we are unable to agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Walworth. Can we issue an application to the Residential Property Tribunal Service?

Most definitely. We can put you in touch with a Walworth conveyancing firm who can help.
