I am in need of a conveyancer. Do I opt for an online conveyancer rather than a high street Lanchester conveyancing solicitor?

On the whole conveyancing lawyers in your area will enjoy excellent alliances with your local authority, which could help with the Lanchester conveyancing searches that your lawyer will inevitably need.

My fiancee and I are purchasing our first property. Our conveyancing practitioner has messagedto see if we would like to take out additional conveyancing searches. Unfortunately we have no idea as to what's appropriate for conveyancing in Lanchester

The type of Lanchester conveyancing searches should be triggered based entirely on the premises, the location, the possibility of any of these risks, your familiarity of the region and risks, your overall approach to risk. What matters is that you properly comprehend what information the searches could provide. You may then decide if you consider that you need that information. Where you are uncertain, ask your solicitor to guide you.

Back In 2000, I bought a leasehold house in Lanchester. Conveyancing and Barnsley Building Society mortgage are in place. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the reversionary interest in the property. It included a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1998. The conveyancing solicitor in Lanchester who previously acted has long since retired. What should I do?

The first thing you should do is make enquiries of HMLR to make sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is indeed the registered owner of the freehold reversion. You do not need to incur the fees of a Lanchester conveyancing solicitor to do this as it can be done on-line for less than a fiver. Rest assured that in any event, even if this is the legitimate freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

I acquired a ground floor flat in Lanchester, conveyancing formalities finalised in 1996. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Comparable flats in Lanchester with a long lease are worth £260,000. The ground rent is £45 yearly. The lease terminates on 21st October 2100

With just 74 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as legals.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be additional concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
