I acquired my flat on 1 June and the transaction details are still not registered. Need I be worried? My conveyancing solicitor in Kempston advises it would be registered in a couple of weeks. Are transfers in Kempston uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Kempston is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust depending on who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry need to notify any third parties. Currently roughly three quarters of such applications are fully addressed within 12 days but occasionally there can be longer hold-ups. Historically registration takes place after the purchaser is living at the property therefore 'speed' is not usually an essential issue but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
I want to sublet my leasehold flat in Kempston. Conveyancing solicitor who did the purchase is retired - so can't ask him. Do I need to ask my freeholder for their consent?
A small minority of properties in Kempston do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to review references. Experience dictates that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.
Leasehold Conveyancing in Kempston - Sample of Questions you should consider before buying
-
Who are the managing agents?
Is the freehold owned collectively by the tenants?
Where a Kempston lease has fewer than 80 years it will affect the salability of the flat. Check with your mortgage company that they are content with residual term of the lease. Leases with fewer than 80 years remaining means that you will probably need a lease extension sooner rather than later and it is worth discovering what this will be. Remember, in most cases you would need to own the premises for two years before you are entitled to extend the lease.
