In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Coven? What am I being asked for?

You are right in these requests have nothing to do with conveyancing in Coven. Nowadays you will not be able to proceed with any conveyancing transaction without first handing over proof of your identity. Ordinarily this takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence and a bank statement.

You should not be offended when when this is requested of you as your conveyancing solicitor must have this information on file. Your Coven conveyancing lawyer will need to see evidence of proof of funds prior to accepting any money from you into their client account and they may also ask further queries regarding the source of monies.

I am looking at a two flats in Coven both have in the region of forty five years left on the lease term. Do I need to be concerned?

There are no two ways about it. A leasehold apartment in Coven is a deteriorating asset as a result of the reducing lease term. The nearer the lease gets to its expiry date, the more it adversely affects the salability of the premises. For most buyers and lenders, leases with under 75 years become less and less marketable. On a more upbeat note, leaseholders can extend their leases by serving a Section 42 Notice. One stipulation is that they must have owned the premises for two years (unlike a Section 13 notice for purchasing the freehold, when leaseholders can participate from day one of ownership). When successful, they will have the right to an extension of 90 years to the current term and ground rent is effectively reduced to zero. Before moving forward with a purchase of a residence with a short lease term remaining you should talk to a solicitor specialising in lease extensions and leasehold enfranchisement. We are are happy to put you in touch with Coven conveyancing experts who will explain the options available to you during an initial telephone conversation free of charge. A more straightforward and quicker method of extending would be to contact your landlord directly and sound him out on the prospect of extending the lease. You may find he or she is happy to negotiate informally and willing to consider your offer straight off, without having to involve anyone else. This will save you time and money and it could help you reach a lower price on the lease. You need to ensure that the agreed terms represent good long-term value compared with the standard benefits of the Section 42 Notice and that onerous clauses are not inserted into any redrafting of the lease.
