My partner and I are selling our property in Yardley and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Yardley conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers are using an internet conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Yardley. We have lived in Yardley for three years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. What do they say? You must check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)
The deeds to our house can not be found. The solicitors who did the conveyancing in Yardley 10 years ago no longer exist. What do I do?
As long as you have a registered title the details of your ownership will be recorded by HMLR under a Title Number. It is easy to carry out a search at the Land Registry, identify your property and secure current copies of the property title for a small fee. Where the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will usually hold a certified duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be obtained for a small fee.
I decided to have a survey carried out on a property in Yardley in advance of retaining lawyers. I have been told that there is a flying freehold element to the house. Our surveyor advised that some lenders tend refuse to grant a loan on such a premises.
It depends who your proposed lender is. Santander has different requirements from Halifax. Should you wish to telephone us we can check with the appropriate bank. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Yardley. Conveyancing may be slightly more expensive based on your lender's requirements.
