MoorlandsBURY ROAD, SEWARDSTONBURY
An exceptional family residence situated withinwhat is popularly regarded as the area’s premierroad and backing onto the 10th Green of WestEssex Golf Course.
This property has been the subject of a major refurbishment
programme to the exacting standards of the current vendors. The
property combines an immaculate traditional exterior with a modern
contemporary interior to suit the needs of the modern family.
PRICE GUIDE: £POA
A surprising number of cases arising out of
contested wills come before the courts each year
and the large majority of these are avoidable.Such cases can arise for a variety of reasons, one of which is that a will isknown to have been made, but cannot be found.
One such ‘lost will’ case was heard in which the original of the will was saidto be lost and a photocopy of the alleged will was put before the court forverification.
Behind the case was a not uncommon story. A father died and the copy ofhis will favoured one of his sons, with whom he had lived for several years.The main asset of the estate was the family home and this was left to theson, with the residue of the estate divided between the other children. If thewill was ruled to be invalid, they stood to inherit far more, under theintestacy rules, and they contested the validity of the will. They argued thatthe will was forged and that if it was not, then the deceased must haverevoked and intentionally destroyed the original. They argued that theirfather hoarded documents and that he would have kept the original of thewill if it still represented his wishes.
The evidence of a handwriting expert, concerning the authenticity of thewill, was inconclusive. However, the court heard a great deal of independentevidence that confirmed that the deceased had indeed intended to give thefamily home to his son on his death. Furthermore, witnesses were producedwho recognised the photocopy as being that of the original will which theyhad been asked to witness.
The judge ruled that the photocopied will be accepted as valid.
The necessity of taking this case to court resulted in unnecessary costs andno doubt a considerable amount of ill-feeling in the family. The legalproceedings also delayed the administration of the estate for a veryconsiderable period. This circumstance could easily have been avoided hadthe original of the will been prepared with the benefit of professional adviceand retained in a safe place which was known to the family.
Making a will at Attwater & Liell and storing it with us is not expensive andcan avoid a great deal of unnecessary cost, delay and, possibly, acrimonybetween surviving members of the family. It also gives you the re-assurancethat, at what will be a difficult and distressing time for your family, there willbe someone immediately on hand to help them navigate the probateprocedures and to ensure that your intentions as to the disposal of yourestate are realised as you would wish.

Driven by research that has highlighted thenumber of £1m plus properties in areassurrounding London. It is apparent that all theareas covered by our Lawlors offices feature wayup the list. The North East London cluster of highvalue properties are included in the areas ofChigwell, High Beech, Loughton and WoodfordGreen, and are all recognised as top locations.
As you will see many of the properties featuredthroughout the pages of this magazinecomfortably fit into this criteria. The forthcomingdevelopment of Chigwell Grange by Byrne Estateswill certainly push our local profile even higher,with over 30 luxury homes to be built in the nearfuture. In nearby Theydon Road, Epping Lawlorshave successfully launched four fantasticconverted apartments onto the market with pricesranging from £950,000 to £1.5m. Demand is highwith staff inundated with enquiries from seriousbuyers looking to down-size to these apartments.
The desire to retain a fantastic standard ofaccommodation but shed the top floor is a toppriority in the area for many people, but the desireto stay in the area is what supports these values.
A development of luxury homes expected toachieve in excess of £2m will shortly be available inthe Loughton area. I have seen probably my first£10m property recently and at least two otherproperties that can touch the £4m mark. If theseproperties are anything to go by then we cancertainly anticipate high demand throughout thearea and a competitive position at the top of most‘desirable suburb list’.
...we can certainly anticipate high demandthroughout the area...
The Perfect Suburb
Regular readers of our Inhouse magazine will know that for many years I have beenchampioning the benefits of living in our leafy suburbs, and now it seems the Londonproperty media are starting to see our part of Essex in a much better light. Gone arethe old ‘birds of a feather’ clichés. The hot topic of the day, according to theEvening Standard, is the rise of the Super Suburb.
James LawlorPARTNER F.N.A.E.A
You have finished your property transactions in England and decide, forwhatever reason, that it is time to embark on the adventure of buyinga property abroad. All is going swimmingly well – you have found yourproperty, you have arranged finance in the foreign country and you haveinstructed a local lawyer. Out of the blue arrives a bundle of papers with theinstruction that they are to be notarised and returned to the foreign lawyer asa matter of urgency. The papers are partly in a foreign language, which youcannot understand, although it appears that some of them have beentranslated by the lawyer, but what do you do next? The answer is simple, ifperhaps not too helpful. Find a Notary Public.
So what is a Notary Public He is one of only 800 persons in England who cannotarise documents for use abroad. Many solicitors think they have thisqualification also, but they are wrong. The majority of notaries are solicitors, buttheir notarial practice is carried on completely separately and independently fromtheir practice as a solicitor, although usually within the same office of their firm.Most towns or business centres have a notary in the locality. A notary’s authoritystems from his permission to practice, which is still granted by the Archbishop ofCanterbury and is one of the last vestiges of the old ecclesiastical law.
Having found your notary he will ask you to attend before him, together withany other persons who have to sign, with evidence of identity, [usually your
passport], the documents that you have received from abroad and his fees.Charges are on an hourly basis and will vary between £250 and £300.
Since it will take at least 15 minutes to deal with your notarialrequirements you will find that there will often be a minimum charge in
the region of £70.00.
After your visit to the notary you will leave with your documents,boasting an impressive display of seals and stamps, but you may
not yet be finished. Your instructions from the foreign lawyermight also have asked you to have the documents “legalised”.
This next step [which can be organised for you by the notaryfor an additional charge] involves taking or sending the
documents to the Foreign & Commonwealth Office inLondon where an “apostille” will be affixed. Rarely
some countries may still not be satisfied and you may need to attend theEmbassy or Consulate of the foreign country in London to have furtherauthentication attached.
One way or another you have now met all the requirements of your foreignlawyer and are able to return the documents to him, so what has this done?
The whole purpose of the exercise is to authenticate the documents so thatthey can be relied upon in the foreign country. Of course all of this could havebeen avoided had you signed the documents abroad and the procedure is onlynecessary when you are signing documents in this country for use out of theEnglish jurisdiction. Most countries have different requirements from others,American documents being a particular example, and in America requirementseven vary from state to state, but the notary will know this and be able to adviseif things are unclear from the instructions you have received from abroad.
Another example of when notarial services will be required, is if you areinvolved in a company that is establishing itself in business abroad. Thecompany may be opening a bank account, appointing a local agent, assigningthe benefit of a patent or trade mark, etc and all the documentation necessary,if being signed on behalf of the company in England, will invariably need to benotarised.
You can usually find a notary within a reasonable distance, although as youapproach London they tend to be light on the ground since until recentlymembers of the Scriveners’ Company based in the City of London had the soleright to notarise documents there and within 3 miles. Scriveners still exist andare almost exclusively still based within the City and practise purely as such, notalso as solicitors. They are the smallest profession in the country and in additionto providing the notarial service will also be able to interpret and translatedocuments since their members within each firm will be familiar with most ofthe common languages of the world.

Despite all the recent media speculation I believe we have nowreached a period of stability within the marketplace. Albeitprices are not rising at the moment, but neither are theycollapsing. The recent interest rate reduction combined withthe Spring market has seen a burst of activity, particularly inour Woodford Green office.
We have a substantial number of purchasers on our database at the presenttime who are in a good position to buy, but are looking at the entiremarketplace before submitting offers on properties. If you want toget your property sold there are a few simple points which shouldbe considered when pricing your property. It is vital to price correctlyto encourage sufficient interest to attract an offer. If the price is toohigh the buyer will simply do a quick search on comparable propertiesvia the net and move on.
THE BIDDING ZONEThe key is to price within the ‘bidding zone’. This is the price rangebetween your asking price and the price the buyer thinks the propertyis worth. Obviously the smaller this gap is the greater your chance ofselling quickly. It is vital to price accurately to encourage viewing eventhough your asking price may still be above your buyer’s expectation, itneeds to be close enough to tantalise.
I believe it is common knowledge that most people stretch for a propertyif it is what they want and often, what we desire, is beyond our reach.
As a general rule we recommend an asking price no higher than 5% overyour realistic expectation. This is, of course, not a precise science, but with
some proper research and good marketing with Lawlors Property Services we willhelp you set your price and achieve a sale.
Another consideration for vendors to take into account is not just the price you are sellingat, but also the price you may be purchasing at. At the end of the day it is all aboutdifferentials and thus although you maybe taking a price less than you were expecting, ifyou were buying your future property at a lower price then you should be no worse off.
Buyers are more informed than ever and with so much information regarding house pricesavailable on the net, the sensible vendor looks to attract a buyer, rather than hope for a buyer.
