My colleague advised me that if I am purchasing in Y Felinheli I should carry out a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. What does it cover?
This is a search is sometimes included in the estimate for your Y Felinheli conveyancing searches. It is not a small report of about 40 pages, listing and detailing important information about Y Felinheli around the property and the people living there. It incorporates an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the Y Felinheli Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average House Prices, Crime details, Y Felinheli Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful data about Y Felinheli.
It has been 3 months following my purchase conveyancing in Y Felinheli concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £150,000 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 property 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.

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. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. 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.

Can you provide any advice for leasehold conveyancing in Y Felinheli from the point of view of saving time on the sale process?
- A significant proportion of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Y Felinheli can be avoided where you get in touch lawyers the minute your agents start advertising the property and ask them to put together the leasehold documentation which will be required by the purchasers’ conveyancers. In the event that you altered the property did you need the Landlord’s permission? In particular have you installed wooden flooring? Y Felinheli leases often stipulate that internal structural changes or installing wooden flooring require a licence issued by the Landlord acquiescing to such works. If you dont have the consents in place do not communicate with the landlord without checking with your lawyer first. Some Y Felinheli leases require Licence to Assign from the landlord. If this is the case, it would be prudent to place the estate agents on notice to make sure that the purchasers put in hand financial (bank) and professional references. Any bank reference will need to confirm that the buyers are financially capable of paying the annual service charge and the actual amount of the service charge should be quoted in the bank’s letter. You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the service charge figures so that they can pass this information on to the buyers or their solicitors. You may think that you are aware of the number of years remaining on your lease but it would be advisable double-check by asking your lawyers. A buyer’s lawyer will be unlikely to recommend their client to to exchange contracts if the lease term is under 80 years. It is therefore essential at an early stage that you identify whether the lease for your property needs extending. If it does, contact your solicitors before you put your property on the market for sale.

Please note that where the lease has fewer than 80 years it will have adverse implications on the value of the property. Check with your mortgage company that they are willing to to proceed given the lease term. Leases with fewer than 80 years remaining means that you will almost definitely require a lease extension at some point and it is worth finding out how much this will be. For most Y Felinhelilease extensions you will need to own the premises for a couple of years before you are eligible to carry out a lease extension. It would be sensible to investigate if there are any onerous prohibitions in the lease. For example it is reasonably common in Y Felinheli leases that pets are not permitted in certain buildings in Y Felinheli.
