There is lots of here regarding conveyancing in Tenterden but can you isolate your top tip for finding the right conveyancer in Tenterden
It would be unwise to be swayed by the lowest Tenterden conveyancing quote. You really do get what you’re paying for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.
I have todayfound out that Arc property Solicitors have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Tenterden for a purchase of a freehold house 18 months ago. How can I be sure that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?
The easiest method to see if the premises is registered to you, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Tenterden conveyancing specialists.
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Tenterden I like with a park and transport links nearby, however it's only got 52 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Tenterden for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.
