PUTTING PARENTS & CHILDREN FIRST Conservation areas are created to conserve the built fabric and all its merits. That does not mean that properties cannot be altered, it’s a question of how. An architect with good design and negotiation skills is key. There are many factors that have to be taken into account in a conservation area; the context of the building in question, the type of proposals and the extent of conservation. Sometimes this can be the look of a street, a hedgerow or sometimes, the very eclectic local architecture!

If you are buying a home and renting it back to your children, make sure you can meet the repayments if they can’t. Otherwise, you may have to sell at a loss. If you don’t have enough money to help, you could borrow money using your own home as security, but this carries considerable risks as you could lose your home if you cannot meet the repayments.

It’s worth noting that this is a perfect time to start moving, especially if you want your children settled in school in september, you obviously need to allow sufficient time to take the move smoothly and steadily.

PUTTING PARENTS & CHILDREN FIRST AT THE OAK-TREE SCHOOLS Friendly, Family Schools in North Chingford, Epping and Loughton Spring is a key time for decision making for parents looking for schooling in September 2013, and the Oak-Tree Schools have been busy with Open Mornings, requests for tours, additional entrance exams and taster sessions over recent weeks. This has been evident at Normanhurst in North Chingford, Oaklands in Loughton and Epping’s Coopersale Hall. Parents commented in the recent surveys that there are many opportunities to talk to their Heads and Principal, with the Oak-Tree Schools clearly valuing the relationships with parents and acting on many of the practical suggestions for further development. Recent informal coffee mornings have enabled Headmistresses Kaye Lovejoy, Cheryl Macnair and Claire Osborn, together with Managing Principal Matthew Hagger, to chat and listen to the very people whose opinions count. This close working relationship is not easily replicated at larger schools.
Oaklands’ pupils enjoying outdoor lessons
Matthew Hagger, Managing Principal of the Oak-Tree Group, commented “I am always pleasantly surprised by the number of parents who take the time out of their busy days to come and talk to us. We’ve met parents yeargroup by yeargroup and have been overwhelmed by how positive their experiences of our schools have been. Some have been with us for many years, others have recently joined. The vast majority have been delighted with our education and where suggestions have been made for further development, we’ve been able to make changes quickly. Our parents make financial sacrifices to ensure their children get the best academic and all-round education at our schools and are always looking for opportunities to add to the service we provide. Coopersale Hall and Oaklands parents are very interested in the move to senior education at 11+ and are keen to hear our advice about which senior schools are most appropriate when the time comes.

Home sales up as first-timers hit five-year high The number of first-time buyers in the property market has reached a five-year high, according to the Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML). Following this encouraging news, housing market sentiment has been lifted further by the Chancellor’s launch of a two-pronged ‘Help to Buy’ scheme in his Budget on 20 March. The CML figures showed that there were 216,200 first-time buyers in 2012. That was the first time the annual total exceeded 200,000 since 2007. It was also a 12% increase on the 2011 figure of 193,000. Another notable feature of the UK mortgage market in 2012 was a rise in buy-to-let lending which, at £16.4 billion gross, was up 19% on the previous year. In further good news for the housing market, the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) reported that the number of sales continued to grow in January for the fourth month in a row. Although the growth was quite small, RICS spokesman Peter Bolton King said it was a sign that the worst might be over for the property market. Although some reports suggest that its positive impact has fallen short of expectations, a number of property market experts believe that the Funding for Lending scheme, which was introduced by the Bank of England to encourage banks and building societies to expand lending, has helped mortgage approvals and home sales. Mr Bolton King said: “Price falls across the UK have gradually stemmed in recent months and it is interesting to see that the amount of completed transactions are on the rise, as confidence returns to the marketplace. While it is still very early days to talk about a comprehensive market recovery, activity levels are still encouraging and there is some optimism out there that things could continue to improve.” After Mr Bolton King commented, homebuyers and housebuilders alike were given further grounds for optimism by Chancellor George Osborne’s Budget Day
announcement about a ‘Help to Buy’ scheme. The new scheme, designed to aid both the housing market and the wider economy, will have two elements. One takes the form of a shared-equity loan to provide finance of up to 20% for many new-build purchases. The other will be a mortgage guarantee scheme to help those with small deposits to qualify for a mortgage. Under the shared-equity loan element, government funding of up to £3.5 billion will be made available for qualifying purchases where the purchaser can provide a 5% deposit to buy a brand-new house costing up to £600,000 with a capital repayment mortgage. The loan of up to £120,000 will be interest-free for five years. ‘Help to Buy: equity loan’ becomes available from April 2013. The mortgage guarantee element of the ‘Help to Buy’ scheme could, over a three-year period, see the government provide guarantees to cover up to £130 billion of loans to enable mortgage providers to offer a higher ‘loan to value’ than would normally apply. ‘Help to Buy: mortgage guarantee’ will be available from January 2014. These new schemes, not available for buy-to-let, are in addition to Funding for Lending and NewBuy, so there are clear signs that getting the housing market fully back on its feet is a major government priority, not just to help individuals’ personal lives but also to support businesses that depend on a vibrant construction sector. A resumption of more sustained growth in activity and prices could result from this concerted action. Please contact me if you would like legal advice on buying or selling a home.

Lasting Powers of Attorney Your new year resolutions may have included such things as more exercise and less alcohol but I wonder how many of you thought about setting up Lasting Powers of Attorney? Whilst you are soberly leaping around at boot camp you may like to ponder on the following… A ‘Lasting Power of Attorney’ (LPA) provides a formal authority to look after a person’s affairs when they are not in a position to do so. This can include a situation where you are physically unable to manage your affairs, such as cruising around the Caribbean until further notice, or if you are mentally incapable of dealing with your affairs through illness or old age. There are two different types of LPA, the first dealing with property and financial affairs, the second dealing with health and welfare. The LPA dealing with health and welfare only comes into effect when someone has lost mental capacity. The time to put these documents in place is now, when you are fit and healthy and are capable of understanding the process and procedure. You never know when you or your family may need them. Without setting up LPAs it can mean a situation where
say a husband has lost capacity through ill-health or an accident and his wife will have to apply to the Court to access his bank accounts because she has no authority in place. This could cause difficulties in meeting responsibilities such as mortgage payments, school fees, utility bills or other essentials that traditionally her husband was paying for. Couples may have their accounts in joint names. This will allow one person to access the accounts. However, this is not necessarily the solution particularly if a spouse needed to go into residential care as technically each person owns half the value of the accounts. If you do not have an LPA in place and lose mental capacity, your relatives may need to make an application to the Court in order to deal with your property and finances. This can be expensive and could take several months to put in place. You can choose anyone you trust to be your attorney. They must however be over 18 and not bankrupt. It is important to discuss this with them first. An LPA will

SPOTLIGHT ON WOODFORD LETTINGS... Over the past few years we’ve noticed a vast change in the rental market and none more so than over the past twelve months. We are GARETH JONES Manager
noticing a change in people’s life plans, be this a job opportunity abroad or plans to move closer to family in other parts of the country or just a general downsizing and with these life changing decisions we are finding ourselves with more and more ‘accidental landlords’ .
DANIEL FROST negotiator
By ‘accidental landlords’ we mean owners of properties that have never contemplated the rental market, who, instead of committing to the selling of their property they adopt a ‘try before you buy’ policy. They are putting themselves in a situation where if there decision isn’t quite what they thought it would be they can come back to their family home and if all goes to plan they can then make the decision to sell the property. We are finding that the latter seems to be the case, this (at lawlors) puts us in a unique position where we can then pass the property and the landlord (that we have already built up a relationship with and a tenant who trusts us) to enable us to sell the property with ease, making the whole process simple and stress free. If you feel that you may be in a situation like this please call and we can discuss it further.
