In July 2007 Fridaysmove conveyancing Thames Ditton team were instructed to acton the purchase conveyancing for a 99 year leasehold for a residential property valued at around
£325,000.00 located at Thames Ditton, Surrey, KT7. The local authority for this residence is Elmbridge Council -
www.elmbridge.gov.uk/. As this property is in a
conservation area, conveyancers need take extra precautions in case any alteration have been made. The local authority search revealed that Hayward Road unadopted was an unadopted road in
this area. This was of concern to the buyer and their mortgage lender. Further investigations need to be made and with the sellers as to ownership of the road and practical arrangements in
terms of maintenance and upkeep. An order to preserve trees existed at the property. The conveyancing searches revealed that the property was at risk of natural flooding (as shown on area
environmental searches). We needed to check with the sellers whether or not the property had ever suffered from flooding as well as make sure that the insurance would be available to cover
the risk of flooding. The Land Registry Office Copies supplied were out of date and accordingly fresh copies were requested from the sellers conveyancing solicitor. David Abraham was the
property lawyer in charge of conveyancing in Thames Ditton, Surrey, South East England. The estate agent's memo of sale detailing the sellers conveyancing solicitor/licensed conveyancer
was obtained shortly before receiving the sale contract. The estate agent was the Matthew Pierce and Co branch covering Thames Ditton. -
