I am soon to exchange buying a house in Blackheath but as a result of damage from a small fire at the property I have was able negotiate reparation from the vendor of £2k by way of a adjustment in the price. This was going to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process but Virgin Money are not allowing this. Should they have been approached?
Your conveyancer being on a Virgin Money conveyancing panel is obliged to advise Virgin Money of any changes to the sale price. If you were to refuse your solicitor to disclose the reduction to Virgin Money then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Virgin Money and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Blackheath.
I purchased a freehold property in Blackheath but still charged rent, why is this and what is this?
It’s unusual for properties in Blackheath and has limited impact for conveyancing in Blackheath 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 hundreds of years, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.
Previous rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a one off payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 will be extinguished.
