Leasehold purchases and sales

Buying a flat, or a different type of leasehold is usually more complex when compared to a freehold transaction. To do so, you will need to obtain plenty of information related to both the lease, and the property management. Though this is not an exhaustive list, the type of information required includes:

A copy of the freehold title
A copy of the lease
Evidence of the amount held in a sinking fund
Management company accounts
Planning consent and building regulations approval
A copy of the buildings insurance policy

If you are planning to sell a leasehold property, our conveyancing solicitors will gather the necessary information and documents, liaising with the management company or agent on your behalf.

Newbuild purchases

Developers usually set tight deadlines for those who are purchasing new build properties. Our specialist solicitors are used to this, and able to work efficiently and swiftly, to ensure that you’ll be ready to exchange contracts by the specified date.

The documents that you will require when buying a new build include, but is not limited to:

Building regulations approval
Planning consents
A newbuild warranty
A transfer document outlining numerous restrictive covenants

Our conveyancing specialists have plenty of experience in newbuild conveyancing processes. We will make certain that you appreciate the processes and your obligations, and are always kept up to date.

Re-mortgages

If you have decided to remortgage your property, you will require the help of conveyancing lawyers to represent you, as well as your new lender. At Roythornes we have much experience carrying out the necessary due diligence work. When you work with us, you can trust that you are in safe hands.

We will obtain a mortgage redemption statement as early as possible, and give you an idea of the funds you will receive on completion. Later, once a completion date is finalised, we will let you know the exact figure.

Following completion day, our conveyancing lawyers will discharge the existing mortgage, provide a balance of funds, and proceed to registry your new loan with Land Registry.

Transfers of equity

A transfer of equity is a process used to transfer property ownership from one individual to another. It may involve adding a person to the title deeds of a property, or removing them.

This process is typically used where a parent is granting property ownership to an adult child. It is also used to revoke ownership in the aftermath of a divorce, where one spouse is buying the other out.

Our experts at Roythornes can provide information about the different types of joint property ownership, ensuring that you choose an option that suits your circumstances.

Shared ownership

Shared ownership is a specialised area of conveyancing, and if you are preparing for this type of transaction, it is recommended to work with expert solicitors.

Our expert team at Roythornes will go over how the process works, and explain any potential setbacks that you should be aware of.

Our shared ownership conveyancing experts will ensure that everything is handled as it should be, moving you through the transaction processes as swiftly as possible.
