Recently asked questions about conveyancing in West Brompton

I am the registered owner of a freehold house in West Brompton yet pay rent, why is this and what is this?

It is rare for properties in West Brompton and has limited impact for conveyancing in West Brompton but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges have existed for hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of fresh rentcharges post 1977.

Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 will be extinguished.

There is lots of here regarding conveyancing in West Brompton but what is your top tip for appointing the right conveyancer in West Brompton

It would be unwise to be tempted by the cheapest West Brompton conveyancing fees. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in advance.

A friend informed me that in purchasing a property in West Brompton there could be a number of restrictions affecting the ability to carry out external alterations to a property. Is this right?

There are a number of properties in West Brompton which have some sort of restriction or requirement of consent to external alterations. Part of the conveyancing in West Brompton should determine what restrictions are applicable and advising you as part of a ROT that should be sent to you.

Is it correct that all West Brompton CQS (Conveyancing Quality Scheme) solicitors are on the Clydesdale conveyancing list of approved solicitors?

It is true that some banks and building societies now utilise CQS as the kick off point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander. The Law Society’s CQS accreditation however is no guarantee to lender panel acceptance. Nevertheless,the Council of Mortgage Lenders have indicated that it is likely to become a pre-requisite for firms wishing to join their approved list of conveyancing solicitors.

Due to the advice of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in West Brompton in advance of appointing conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the property. The surveyor has said that some lenders tend not issue a mortgage on a flying freehold house.

My in 2008. He has since got wed, divorced and is now remarried. He will be marketing the flat in a couple of months. I suspect that he will just be requested to provide a copy of the marriage certificates to the conveyancing practitioner however he is worried it could hold up the sale of the property. Should he instruct a conveyancer to update the land title information for the house?

You are not required to update the register as long as you have the evidence needed to demonstrate how the change of name occurred.

Any buyer’s property lawyer should check the title information and require evidence by way of proof of the name change e.g. marriage certificates.
