I purchased a terraced Victorian property in Wolviston. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and Halifax. I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, another for leasehold under the matching property. Is it worth asking Halifax to clarify?

You should read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Wolviston and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they sell they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also enquire as to the situation with the conveyancing practitioner who conducted the conveyancing.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Wolviston I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Wolviston in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage that many years may be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

What does commercial conveyancing in Wolviston cover?

Commercial conveyancing in Wolviston incorporates a wide range of advice, offered by qualified solicitors, relating to business property. For example, this area of conveyancing can cover the sale or purchase of freehold business premises or, more commonly, the transfer of existing leases or the drafting of new leasing arrangements. Commercial conveyancing solicitors can also offer advice on the sale of business assets, commercial loans and the termination of tenancies.

As co-executor for the will of my father I am selling a house in Monmouth but I am based in Wolviston. My solicitor (based 300 kilometers awayneeds me to execute a stat dec ahead of completion. Can you recommend a conveyancing practitioner in Wolviston who can witness this legal document for me?

strictly speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or solicitor will do regardless of whether they are located in Wolviston

Last December I purchased a leasehold property in Wolviston. Do I have any liability for service charges for periods before my ownership?

In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous owner and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. However, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to ensure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.

If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).

Leasehold Conveyancing in Wolviston - Examples of Questions you should ask before buying

    Where a Wolviston lease has fewer than 80 years it will affect the marketability of the flat. Check with your bank that they are content with the length of the lease. Leases with fewer than 80 years remaining means that you will probably need a lease extension sooner rather than later and you need to have some idea of how much this would cost. Remember, in most cases you will need to own the residence for a couple of years in order to be entitled to extend the lease. This question is important as a) areas may cause problems for the block as the common areas may start to deteriorate if repairs are not paid for b) if the leaseholders have an issue with the managing agents you will want to know about it
