Should our conveyancer be raising questions regarding flooding as part of the conveyancing in Bethesda.
Flooding is a growing risk for lawyers dealing with homes in Bethesda. There are those who acquire a house in Bethesda, completely aware that at some time, it may be flooded. However, aside from the physical damage, where a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to obtain a mortgage, suitable building insurance, or dispose of the property. Steps can be carried out as part of the conveyancing process to forewarn the purchaser.
Solicitors are not best placed to give advice on flood risk, however there are a numerous searches that may be undertaken by the purchaser or by their solicitors which should figure out the risks in Bethesda. The conventional set of property information forms supplied to a buyer’s lawyer (where the Conveyancing Protocol is adopted) contains a standard question of the vendor to find out whether the premises has suffered from flooding. In the event that flooding has previously occurred and is not disclosed by the vendor, then a purchaser could issue a claim for damages stemming from an misleading reply. A purchaser’s lawyers should also conduct an enviro report. This will higlight if there is any known flood risk. If so, more detailed inquiries will need to be conducted.
The deeds to my home are lost. The lawyers who handled the conveyancing in Bethesda 5 years ago are no longer around. What are my options?
You no longer need to hold title deeds to evidence that you own the land or property, given that the Land Registry hold details of all registered land or property electronically.
Back In 2002, I bought a leasehold house in Bethesda. Conveyancing and Barnsley Building Society mortgage went though with no issue. A letter has just been received from someone claiming to own the freehold. It included a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1991. The conveyancing practitioner in Bethesda who previously acted has long since retired. What should I do?
First make enquiries of the Land Registry to be sure that the individual claiming to own the freehold is indeed the new freeholder. There is no need to incur the fees of a Bethesda conveyancing lawyer to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for less than a fiver. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.
