Have you considered what would happen if you, your partner or your parents were incapacitated and unable to manage their own affairs?

This can happen for a number of reasons, the most obvious perhaps is through dementia or Alzheimer’s. However, anyone can be incapacitated mentally at any age, perhaps due to brain injury caused by a road accident. Whatever the reason, when tragedy strikes the affected persons family could find that they have no legal authority to deal with the bank accounts and finances of their relative. Therefore, if for example a husband becomes mentally incapacitated, unless in joint names, his wife would not have access to the funds in his accounts or his investments. This may leave her without money to pay household expenses etc. In a worse case scenario she may not be able to sell the family home to move to a more suitable one. None of us know when such an event may strike and so as boy scouts say “be prepared” At the moment it is possible to prepare an Enduring Power of Attorney (EPA) which gives whoever you appoint, the power to act on your behalf either now or in the future. The EPA can be restricted to provide that whoever you appoint has no power over your accounts and affairs now while you are healthy and competent. The EPA would only come into force if and when you became mentally incapacitated. If this happened the EPA must be registered with the Public Guardianship Office. But if you never become mentally incapable, then the EPA is never “activated” The benefit is that you can chose while you are competent who you wish to look after your affairs eg a partner, trusted relative or friend, if problems occur in the future. Once you have become mentally incapacitated you can no longer make an EPA. At present it is a fairly straightforward process but from October 2007 it will no longer be possible to create new EPAs ( existing ones will still be valid) Instead a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) will have to be created. This will have two parts to it, one to cover the persons property and financial affairs and one to cover welfare and care needs. A different person could therefore be appointed to cover the different aspects of the LPA. As the formalities are more complex the cost of creating the LPA are likely to increase. It may therefore be worth considering arranging an EPA now before these changes take place. If you would like advice on preparing an EPA our probate department would be happy to assist.

Not everyone was away this Summer judging by the bustle of activity on new projects in the area. Some of our new development properties are still currently under construction - prime example being Theydon Towers. Theydon Towers (below) in Theydon Road, Epping is our exclusive development of four luxury apartments which are now taking shape and prospective purchasers can easily see the excellent arrangement of accommodation on offer, and get a proper idea of the specification. Each apartment is individually designed and offers in the region of 1,800 sqft or more of accommodation. Our Penthouse apartment even offers a spectacular roof terrace with splendid views over the surrounding area. The development is ideally suited for purchasers wishing to downsize from large properties, whilst retaining the space and high ceilings that are often so difficult to find.

The location is excellent and with access to Epping Forest immediately to the rear, this really is a secluded and private development which must be seen. Completion is anticipated towards the end of the year, but viewings are being taken now. Please contact our Loughton office on 020 8502 5588 for details. Meanwhile at High Beach (above) our client has nearly completed the refurbishment of this excellent detached residence with spectacular views from a prominent elevated location. The property even boasts two lounges, one on each floor, to get the maximum benefit of the views. With careful thought and arrangement the property offers four bedrooms and associated bathrooms, a large kitchen, breakfast room and bedrooms on both floors. The garden has been recently landscaped and the whole property is set within a gated environment.

BUYING A PROPERTY IS QUITE POSSIBLY THE LARGEST FINANCIAL COMMITMENT MANY OF US WILL MAKE AND IT IS ESSENTIAL TO GET EXPERT GUIDANCE ON HOW TO FINANCE YOUR PURCHASE. Entering the mortgage maze can be a rather daunting experience. Whether you’re a first time buyer or an experienced home owner, the sheer amount of options in front of you can be challenging to understand, let alone choosing the right one for you. Mortgages are evolving all the time so there may be options out there that you don’t even know exist. For most people whose time is precious so trawling through newspapers and websites to find a mortgage can feel like a nightmare. So why not get some help and let someone else who specialises in property finance take the stress away. Time to call in the cavalry! Well not the cavalry as such, but expert help and advice in the form of an independent mortgage adviser. This is someone with access to every mortgage available in the U.K. and with the

technical know-how to guide you through the options and pick the one that best suits you whether you are buying a property to live in or as an investment. A mortgage broker such as Devonshire Financial Services, which specialise in seven figure mortgages, can prove invaluable. We provide each of our clients with a bespoke service that makes the whole process as easy and stress free as possible. Whatever your situation, our experience can ensure that you get the best possible advice when looking to buy your property. Why choose Devonshire? What about my bank? Although very helpful your bank will only be able to tell you about the mortgages they offer. You may feel like you’ve got a good deal but by shopping around you could save thousands of pounds a year. Banks also often limit the amount they are prepared to lend to £500,000 and may ask for 25% deposit for loans over this amount. Through having good relationships and the right contacts within lenders, Devonshire can negotiate to obtain for our clients mortgage rates that might not normally be available. Also due to the high calibre of our clients, we often have exclusive deals from the same lenders that are not available on the high street.

Our lender contacts are also essential when dealing with one of the most important areas of arranging a mortgage, speed. With a high demand for premium properties you’ll need to move pretty quickly to ensure you don’t lose your dream home. We know every lenders process once your application has been received, so if you need your mortgage offer at speed we can ensure that you go to a lender that can fit to your timescales. In a property market where premium homes are fairly scarce and highly desirable, we are increasingly seeing estate agents demanding exchange of contracts within 2 weeks. This is compared to the average timescale for a property transaction in the U.K., which is 8-12 weeks. Therefore applying to a mortgage lender direct could again mean that you miss out on your property. We also appreciate that everyone’s financial situation is different and with some lenders only offering a very basic mortgage option, this may not fit in with your financial needs. For example, some lenders may only allow you to repay a certain amount of the loan per year without getting penalised, however if you receive a large annual bonus and want to use this to reduce your loan you’ll need a product with extra flexibility. You may need a combination of rates, some fixed, some flexible. You may feel that interest only loan rather than repayment would suit your income more. At Devonshire we can tailor your mortgage to fit your finances not only for now but also for the following years. Another common problem for people when looking into mortgages is the use of confusing ‘jargon’, so we promise to talk to you in plain English and are happy to go into as much or as little detail as you require.
