I am the registered owner of a freehold premises in Willen yet pay rent, why is this and what is this?

It’s unusual for properties in Willen and has limited impact for conveyancing in Willen but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges have existed for many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the creation of new rentcharges post 1977.

Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 will be dispensed with completely.

I was pointed in your direction by numerous property agents in Willen to locate a property lawyer using your seach tool. Is there a financial advantage for Estate Agents to offer your services over another?

We don’t offer any financial incentive for sending work our way. We thought it would be too underhand a fee as members of the public would think, ‘How come the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

We're new on the property ladder - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent informed us that the seller will only issue a contract if we instruct their chosen solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street solicitor used to conveyancing in Willen

We suspect that the seller is not behind this requirement. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you intend to appoint your own,trusted Willen conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will provide the negotiator at the agency a kickback or hit his conveyancing targets demanded by corporate headquarters.

I own a ground floor flat in Willen, conveyancing was carried out half a dozen years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Comparable flats in Willen with an extended lease are worth £185,000. The ground rent is £65 invoiced annually. The lease finishes on 21st October 2086
