Conveyancing London – Purchasing in Bow

1.                   Bow has host of period properties and conservation areas which vary greatly in size, character and style including the expensive Tredeger conservation area (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tredegar_Square).  Please check with your conveyancing lawyer as to whether or not the property you are purchasing is within a conservation area as this may affect your ability to obtain planning permission for alterations to the property you intend to purchase.  In some circumstances, it may necessitate specific care and consent, even for demolition of the property and also affect the ability to prune trees hedges etc..  

2.                   Experienced Conveyancing Solicitors in London will be able to point you to the website for London Borough Tower Hamlets where you can find planning applications for historic planning documentation not only in respect of your property but also in respect of neighbouring properties as well.  If you are purchasing a property in Bow  why not take advantage of the freely available information for applications that may be applicable to properties within the street where you are proposing to purchase.  Your conveyancing lawyer is not obliged to provide you with information relating to planning applications for surrounding properties so it is up to you to  check this information.  

3.                   The 2012 Olympics could have an impact on your conveyancing.  Bow  will play a part of the 2012 Games although less so than Hackney and Stratford, The games are to bring the most significant regeneration project ever seen in London.If you are not intending to retain Fridaysmove for your conveyancing please ask your conveyancing solicitor to ensure that there are no adverse entries within the Local Authority Search which relate to either Compulsory Purchase Orders (the potential compulsory purchase of the property you are proposing to buy) or there are any railway schemes that may adversely affect the property. The Bow Back Rivers are a network of post-industrial waterways that have been derelict and underused since the Second World War. Today they form part of the 2012 Olympic Park and the first step towards their restoration is underway with the funding secured for a new lock and water control structure on Prescott Channel in Bow.

4.                   If you are purchasing a relatively new build property in Bow there is a strong possibility that there will be title restrictions within the deeds on parking.  Conveyancing lawyers with experience in conveyancing London properties should know where to look to find any such restrictions (it may well be that the restrictions are contained within a Lease and or planning document known as a Section 104 Agreement.  If Fridaysmove are not handling your conveyancing this may be something that you wish to check with your conveyancing solicitor.  

5.                   A number of leasehold properties in the Bow  area are managed by the Local Authority.  When buying a leasehold property in Bow  please beware that you should specifically look to find out information about future works to your building as the Local Authority will have very detailed plans for future works for all properties which the Local Authority are the freehold owner.  Sometimes major works or service charge works can run to thousands of pounds.  You do not want to purchase a property only to find out that there are major works planned and face a significant bill shortly after completion of your purchase.  Your conveyancing solicitor makes appropriate enquiries but it does not hurt to double check.  

The conveyancing lawyers at Fridaysmove have carried out hundreds of conveyancing Bow  properties over the last few years ( including conveyancing many new build developments in Bow . We have just completed the conveyancing of a number of purchases in the So  Bow  Building developed by Telford Homes PLC)

The above tips are by no means a comprehensive list of investigations that a competent property lawyer would look for and merely represent a sample of the issues that may apply to a conveyancing in Bow.  Fridaysmove would obviously be delighted to represent you on a purchase of a property in Bow  but if you do not wish to instruct our conveyancing in Bow team, then we would still recommend that you engage the services of a property lawyer who is familiar with conveyancing London properties and in particular properties within the Bow  area such as :
