Are there restrictive covenants that are commonly identified during conveyancing in Ferryhill?
Restrictive covenants can be picked up when reviewing land registry title as part of the process of conveyancing in Ferryhill. An 1874 stipulation that was seen was ‘The houses to be erected on the estate are each to be of a uniform elevation in accordance with the drawings to be prepared or approved by the vendor’s surveyor…’
Due to the input of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a property in Ferryhill prior to appointing solicitors. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. The surveyor has said that some mortgage companies will refuse to give a loan on this type of premises.

If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Ferryhill.

In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 affect my business premises in Ferryhill and how can your lawyers assist?
The 1954 Act gives protection to commercial leaseholders, giving them the dueness to make a request to court for a continuation of occupancy at the end of the lease term. There are certain specified grounds where a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are involved. We are happy to direct you to commercial conveyancing solicitors who use the act to your advantage and assist with commercial conveyancing in Ferryhill
Is there a distinction between surveying and conveyancing in Ferryhill?
Conveyancing - in Ferryhill or anywhere in England and Wales - is the legal term given to transferring legal title of property from one person to another. It involves the investigation of the title. Whether buying or selling, you should be aware of anything affecting the property such as proposals by government departments, illegal buildings, or outstanding rates. The conveyancer should conduct the appropriate searches and inquiries on the property. Surveying relates to the structure of a property itself. A surveyor will look at a house, flat and any outbuildings you are purchasing and will help you find out about the condition of the building and, if there are problems, give you leverage for reducing the price down or asking the vendor to remedy the defects prior to you complete your move.
