I purchased a freehold premises in Montpelier but nevertheless charged rent, why is this and what is this?

It’s unusual for properties in Montpelier and has limited impact for conveyancing in Montpelier 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 have existed for many centuries, but the Rent Charge Act 1977 barred the establishment of new rentcharges from 1977 onwards.

Old rentcharges can now be redeemed by making a lump sum payment under the Act. Any rentcharges that are still in existence after 2037 is to be extinguished.

I have been told that property searches are the main cause of hinderance in Montpelier conveyancing transactions. Is that correct?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published findings of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure within the common causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Searches are unlikely to be the root cause of delay in conveyancing in Montpelier.
