When to put in place a Shareholders’ Agreement? We would recommend that you enter into a shareholders’ agreement when you set up your company and issue the first shares. You will also be putting in place the company’s constitution at that time (the articles). It is a good time to have a discussion about how the business should be run and what the expectations of the shareholders are with relation to the investment they are putting into the business. If it is straightforward to put together a shareholders’ agreement that should bode well for the future. If you can’t agree on what to include that should set alarm bells ringing! If you leave it until the business is more established, it could be even trickier to reach agreement.
What is an eligibility check? If you wish to transfer the ownership of a house with a mortgage to a new owner, then your lender will first need to perform an eligibility check. This enables the lender to assess whether the proposed new owner(s) of the property will be able to continue with the same mortgage. This will include whether the new owners or joint owners: Can pass a credit check, Have sufficient income to be eligible for the existing mortgage, Meet the appropriate age requirements, Have residency in the UK. What happens if the new owner fails the eligibility check? If you do not meet the requirements set out by the mortgage company, then an alternative will be to either find some way to remortgage the property or pay off the existing mortgage in order to transfer ownership.
