In December 2009, Property Lawyer Stephanie Gerstler, head of our Conveyancing team in Leeds, handled the Conveyancing for the sale of a freehold, semi-detached house located in Belle Isle, Leeds, LS10. The estimated value of the property was £89,950.

The local authority district that the property is located in is Leeds City council. The main office for the council is located at Civic Hall, Calverley Street, Leeds, LS1 1UR. 

Leeds is currently undergoing a 15 year transport plan which is planned to carry on to 2026 and is a concern of local residents and home owners as they will be affected by the works during this period. The plan covers all forms of local transport including buses, trains, and roads, cycling and walking.

The three main objectives of the plan are:

• improve connectivity to support economic activity and growth in West Yorkshire and the Leeds City region
• to make substantial progress towards a low carbon, sustainable transport system for West Yorkshire, while recognising transport's contribution to national carbon reduction plans
• to enhance the quality of life of people living in, working in and visiting West Yorkshire

The plan sets out to tackle congestion and a lack of transport investment which are key contributory factors to lower than average economic performance in West Yorkshire. It also aims to prepare for the predicted, post-recession growth in employment, population and housing and their impact on the reliability of the transport network.

Further detail and supporting information is available from the local transport plan website at www.wyltp.com.

There was a restriction registered against the property and it was crucial for Stephanie to have all the relevant documentation in order and available during the pre-contractual stage for the review of the purchaser’s Conveyancing Solicitor to ensure that the transaction progressed without any delays.

The buyer’s Conveyancing Solicitor was Levi Solicitors at 33 St. Paul’s Street, Leeds, LS1 2JJ.

The estate agent was the Manning Stainton branch, located at 12 Feast Field, Horsforth, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS18 4TJ.
