Tenants in common or joint tenants – How should we decide?

Many co-owners elect to hold the property as “joint tenants” if they live together and have no children from a previous relationship. If one of them were to die their interest in the property would pass automatically to the survivor who would then own the property outright. With tenants in common each party has a defined share in the property, which, if not specified, will be assumed to be 50/50, with their respective shares passing through their Wills.

If you would like to speak to our conveyancing solicitors regarding which type of property ownership is best suited to your circumstances, call our offices today on 0800 987 8156 and our team with explain both options to you in more detail.

What are restrictive covenants?

A restrictive covenant is a legal obligation written into your property’s title documents which seek to “restrict” how the land or property can be used or altered.

Restrictive covenants and their enforceability are a complex topic, if you require advice or have questions about your property, or need to speak to our experienced solicitors about removing or changing a restrictive covenant, call our offices today on 0800 987 8156.

Listed building consent vs conservation area consent – What are the differences?

Conservation areas are defined by the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 as “Areas of special architectural or historical interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance”.

A listed building is a building or other structure of special architectural or historic interest included on a statutory list and assigned a grade (I, II* or II).

Sites of exceptional historic interest are assessed as Grade I, those of great historic interest as Grade II* and those of special historic interest as Grade II. Listing includes the interior as well as the exterior of the building, and any buildings or permanent structures (e.g. wells within its curtilage).

If you are thinking about buying a property or altering a property you own, make sure you are fully informed about what may be required to satisfy this complex area of regulation. Kew Law’s dedicated property solicitors can help with this, as the financial implications of getting it wrong can be costly.

Call us today, our residential property team are available to offer initial advice and support on 0800 987 8156. In the meantime, why not check out our free legal guide for what to bear in mind before you proceed, head to: https://ow.ly/jTJO50YZ2E7
