Specialist conveyancing advice for Glasgow flats and tenements
Glasgow’s property market includes a wide range of flats, from traditional sandstone tenements to modern developments. Each type of property brings its own legal considerations.
Our role is to guide you through the conveyancing process, explain your obligations clearly and ensure that potential issues are identified before they become problems. We focus on providing practical advice so you can proceed with confidence.
We act for first time buyers, home movers, investors and sellers throughout Glasgow and surrounding areas.
Common legal issues with flats and tenements
Flats and tenements involve shared ownership structures that require careful legal review. Our conveyancing solicitors regularly advise on:
Common repairs and maintenance
Tenement properties often include shared repair obligations for roofs, stairwells and external walls. We review title deeds and common repair provisions so you understand your responsibilities.
Factors and property management
Many flats are managed by property factors. We check factoring arrangements, fees, outstanding balances and any disputes that may affect the sale or purchase.
Title conditions and burdens
Flats often include complex title conditions covering use, alterations and access. We explain these conditions clearly and raise any concerns before missives are concluded.
Building insurance
Shared buildings usually require common insurance arrangements. We ensure appropriate cover is in place and clarify responsibility for premiums.
Alterations and consents
Internal alterations such as removed walls or new windows may require consent. We check whether proper permissions have been obtained.
