As someone unfamiliar with the Yiewsley conveyancing process what’s the number one tip you can give me concerning the home moving process in Yiewsley

Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Yiewsley or throughout West London is often a confrontational process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of opportunity for friction between you and other parties involved in the home moving process. E.g., the vendor, estate agent and even potentially a bank.

Will our solicitor be making enquiries regarding flooding during the conveyancing in Yiewsley.

Flooding is a growing risk for conveyancers dealing with homes in Yiewsley. There are those who buy a house in Yiewsley, fully expectant that at some time, it may suffer from flooding. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, where a property is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, suitable insurance cover, or sell the property. There are steps that can be taken as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the buyer.

Conveyancers are not qualified to impart advice on flood risk, but there are a number of searches that can be initiated by the buyer or by their lawyers which should figure out the risks in Yiewsley. The standard property information forms supplied to a purchaser’s conveyancer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) includes a usual question of the seller to discover whether the premises has ever been flooded. If flooding has previously occurred which is not disclosed by the seller, then a purchaser could commence a legal claim for losses stemming from an incorrect reply. The purchaser’s solicitors will also commission an environmental search. This will reveal whether there is any known flood risk. If so, more detailed investigations will need to be carried out.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Yiewsley I like with a park and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Yiewsley for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for at least 2 years you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass 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 concerning this matter.
