Willusing a Rushden conveyancing lawyer make the ownership transfer smoother?

Existing third party relationships are another important factor to consider when choosing conveyancing solicitors. Rushden conveyancers often have long term relationships with lenders and agents, local authorities, valuers and other law firms meaning the whole process is going to be much more straightforward for you. Possessing specialist insight into the local area also helps too.

Me and my brother own a renovated Edwardian house in Rushden. Conveyancing lawyer represented me and . I did a free Land Registry search last week and there are two entries: the first freehold, the second leasehold with the matching property. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You should review 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 proprietor of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Rushden 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 purchasers. You can also enquire as to the situation with the conveyancing solicitor who conducted the purchase.

Just had an offer accepted on a new build flat in Rushden. Conveyancing is necessary evil at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build legal work.

Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Rushden

Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Please supply a car parking plan. Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents. 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.

I am looking for a flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Rushden I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Rushden in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the 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 start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.

I'm remortgaging my primary home to a BTL loan with and intend to use the remaining equity as a down payment on further house. The location we are looking at is Rushden. Will your conveyancers be able to act for the two mortgage companies and tie in the transactions?
