As I am unsure how the conveyancing bit works what is the most important number one tip you can give me concerning purchase conveyancing in Bramford?

You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Bramford or throughout Suffolk is often a confrontational process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of room for confrontation between you and others involved in the legal transfer of property. For example, the seller, property agent and on occasion a mortgage company. Appointing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Bramford is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE party in the process whose responsibility is to protect your best interests and to keep you safe.

There is a worrying creep of a "blame" culture- someone has to be at fault for the process being so protracted. We recommend that you must always trust your solicitor above the other parties in the home moving process.

The Landlord must covenant to assume the management if the Management Company goes into liquidation or otherwise defaults in running the management scheme. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants.

• Much of the delay in leasehold conveyancing in Bramford can be avoided if you get in touch lawyers as soon as you market your property and request that they start to collate the leasehold documentation which will be required by the buyers’ representatives.
A minority of Bramford leases require Landlord’s consent to the sale and approval of the buyers. If this is the case, you should notify your estate agents to make sure that the purchasers obtain financial (bank) and professional references. Any bank reference should make it clear that the buyer is financially capable of paying the annual service charge and the actual amount of the service charge should be quoted in the bank’s letter. You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the service charge figures so that they can pass this information on to the buyers or their solicitors. If there is a history of any disputes with your landlord or managing agents it is essential that these are settled before the property is marketed. The buyers and their solicitors will be reluctant to purchase a flat where there is a current dispute. You may have to bite the bullet and pay any arrears of service charge or resolve the dispute prior to completion of the sale. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled prior to the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You are still duty bound to disclose particulars of the dispute to the purchasers, but it is better to reveal the dispute as historic as opposed to unsettled. If you hold a share in a the Management Company, you should make sure that you hold the original share document. Arranging a duplicate share certificate is often a lengthy formality and frustrates many a Bramford home move. If a reissued share is required, you should approach the company director and secretary or managing agents (if relevant) for this sooner rather than later.
