It is 10 years ago since I acquired my house in Hornsey Rise. Conveyancing lawyers have just been retained on the sale but I can't locate my deeds. Is this a problem?
Don’t worry too much. First there is a possibility that the deeds will be with your lender or they could be in the possession of the conveyancers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly in most cases the land will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers obtaining up to date copy of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Hornsey Rise involves registered property but in the rare situation where your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.
How does conveyancing in Hornsey Rise differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Hornsey Rise approach us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because new home sellers in Hornsey Rise usually buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Hornsey Rise or who has acted in the same development.
I decided to have a survey completed on a property in Hornsey Rise in advance of appointing conveyancers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold overhang to the property. The surveyor has said that some banks tend refuse to give a loan on such a home.
It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different instructions for example to Halifax. Should you wish to call us we can check with the relevant bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Hornsey Rise. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Hornsey Rise to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.
