I own a freehold premises in Adlington but still pay rent, why is this and what is this?

It is rare for properties in Adlington and has limited impact for conveyancing in Adlington but some freehold properties in England (particularly common in North West England) pay an annual sum known as a Chief Rent or a Rentcharge to a third party who has no other legal interest in the land.

Rentcharge payments are usually between £2.00 and £5.00 per year. Rentcharges date back many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the generation of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.

Old rentcharges can now be extinguished by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence post 2037 will be extinguished.

We are planning on selling our house in Adlington and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built land that was not decontaminated. A local conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the buyers used a web based conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Adlington. Having lived in Adlington for many years we know that this is a non issue. Do we get in touch with our local Authority to get clarification that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You need to enquire of 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)

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £245,000 and found one near me in Adlington I like with a park and station nearby, however it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Adlington for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?

Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you could ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

What is the reason for new build conveyancing in Adlington being more expensive?

Purchasing a new build property is completely different from the standard house purchase conveyancing in Adlington. For a start housebuilders normally insist contracts to exchange very quickly, the result being a a great deal of pressure on your property lawyer to make sure everything is in order. In addition new build conveyancing often necessitate the checking of adoption of highways, drains, planning considerations, building warranties or architects certificates. Mortgage company obligations are also more demanding. Given the complex nature of the process for these types of properties, the conveyancing new build fees are higher than normal.
