It has been 3 months following my purchase conveyancing in Buckfastleigh completed. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
Jane (my partner) and I may need to let out our Buckfastleigh 1st floor flat for a while due to a career opportunity. We instructed a Buckfastleigh conveyancing firm in 2004 but they have closed and we did not think at the time get any guidance as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?
A small minority of properties in Buckfastleigh do contain a provision to say that subletting is only allowed with permission. The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably refuse but, in such cases, they would need to see references. Experience suggests 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 permission.
I am the registered owner of a leasehold flat in Buckfastleigh, conveyancing formalities finalised half a dozen years ago. How much will my lease extension cost? Equivalent flats in Buckfastleigh with a long lease are worth £179,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 yearly. The lease finishes on 21st October 2081
You have 57 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to be between £26,600 and £30,800 plus legals.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more comprehensive due diligence. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information without first getting professional advice.
