Leasehold properties and those with communal facilities
If you are selling a leasehold flat or house or a freehold property where there are communal facilities or where a service charge is payable it also pays to be prepared.
Solicitors will normally have to write to managing agents to obtain standard information and it can take some managing agents a few weeks to respond so if that process can be started as soon as possible it normally saves time later.
Overall it is really a case of working out what could delay matters and addressing any problems with the solicitors that may arise as soon as possible. It is usually a question of working out the best way of dealing with any issues, which can vary from property to property.
A good conveyancing solicitor will ensure that any issues are dealt with as soon as possible, in a structured and measured way. Whatever the issue may be, the experienced conveyancer is likely to have dealt with similar issues before and will be best placed to guide you through this step by step.
I am always happy to provide clients with an introduction to trusted solicitors.
