Me and my fiancee are acquiring our first house. The property lawyer has e-mailedto check if we want to take out extra conveyancing searches. We are really unsure what's appropriate for conveyancing in Bethnal Green
The scope of Bethnal Green conveyancing searches should be dictated entirely on the property, the location, the probability of any of these risks, your knowledge of the area and risks, your overall approach to risk. What matters is that you adequately comprehend what information each search could give you. You may then make a decision if you personally think you need that information. If uncertain, ask your solicitor to explain.
We note that you have a post code search directory identifying solicitors on the TSB conveyancing panel. Do firms pay you a commission if I retain them for our conveyancing in Bethnal Green?

My fiance and I may need to rent out our Bethnal Green 1st floor flat for a while due to a career opportunity. We instructed a Bethnal Green conveyancing practice in 2003 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any advice as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?
Your lease governs the relationship between the freeholder and you the flat owner; in particular, it will say if subletting is prohibited, or permitted but only subject to certain caveats. The rule is that if the lease contains no specific ban or restriction, subletting is permitted. The majority of leases in Bethnal Green do not prevent subletting altogether – such a provision would undoubtedly devalue the property. Instead, there is usually simply a requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly sending a copy of the sublease.
I am the registered owner of a second floor flat in Bethnal Green. Given that I can not reach agreement with the freeholder, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal make a decision on the sum due for a lease extension?
if there is a absentee landlord or if there is dispute about what the lease extension should cost, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to arrive at the price payable.
An example of a Lease Extension decision for a Bethnal Green premises is 137 & 139 Haberdasher Street in December 2013. The Tribunal determines in accordance with section 48 and Schedule 13 of the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 that the premium for the extended lease for each Property should be £12,350.00. This case affected 2 flats. The unexpired term as at the valuation date was 72.39 years.
Should one as executor remove a departed person's name from the title deeds for a property in Bethnal Green?
Where a Bethnal Green property is co-owned and one of the owners passes away, their name will not immediately be removed from the title deeds. You are not required to remove their name as when it comes to a disposal you would just be required to evidence as to the reason the other proprietor is missing from the conveyance, such as a grant of probate.
With a view to making things smoother in the future you may arrange to have the deceased party erased from the title entries by submitting an application to HMLR with evidence of the death. There is no charge from the Registry for this service.
