Can you explain why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Shrivenham is more expensive?
The conveyancing fees for a leasehold premises in Shrivenham is often greater than on a freehold acquisition or disposal. This is because there is an amount of additional investigations required in corresponding with the freeholder and management company to collate the information concerning whether the rent and maintenance fee have been discharged and whether there are any significant expenditure in the near future on repairs or maintenance of the block.
My flat in Shrivenham is up for sale and I have a buyer. Will the solicitor need to be required to be on the Co-operative conveyancing panel in order to deal with paying off my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Co-operative conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their requirements fairly frequently currently.
The deeds to my property are lost. The conveyancers who handled the conveyancing in Shrivenham 5 years ago are no longer around. What are my next steps?
These day there are copies made of almost everything, and your conveyancer should be aware precisely where to locate all the suitable documentation so you can purchase or dispose of your property without a hitch. If duplicates can’t be found, your conveyancer can put in place insurance or indemnities against possible claims on your premises.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Shrivenham is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Shrivenham are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Shrivenham you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Shrivenham may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
