My husband and I are purchasing a flat in Aldwych. My Conveyancer is not on the bank solicitor panel. Can I still continue with my Aldwych conveyancing solicitor even though they are excluded from the mortgage company panel?
One must have a conveyancer to deal with the legal work required when you take out a loan to buy your property. The conveyancing practitioner will conduct all the relevant investigations on the property, ensuring that you’re registered as proprietor and ensure that all the required mortgage documentation is dealt with. You could instruct a Aldwych lawyer of your choosing. However, where the lawyer appointed is not a member of the lender solicitor panel further costs will arise as separate legal representation will be need by the mortgage company. Conveyancing panel applications can be submitted, so if your solicitor has not historically sought membership they should take the opportunity to apply.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I put an offer in last month in what was supposed to be a simple, chain free conveyancing. Aldwych is the location of the property. Can you offer any advice?
Flying freeholds in Aldwych are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Aldwych you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds diligently. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Aldwych may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Last December I purchased a leasehold house in Aldwych. Am I liable to pay service charges for periods before my ownership?
In a situation where the service charge has already been demanded from the previous owner and they have not paid you would not usually be personally liable for the arrears. Strange as it may seem, your landlord may still be able to take action to forfeit the lease. It is an essential part of leasehold conveyancing for your conveyancer to be sure to have an up to date clear service charge receipt before completion of your purchase. If you have a mortgage this is likely to be a requirement of your lender.
If you purchase part way through an accounting year you may be liable for charges not yet demanded even if they relate to a period prior to your purchase. In such circumstances your conveyancer would normally arrange for the seller to set aside some money to cover their part of the period (usually called a service charge retention).
I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord for a lease extension without success. Can a leaseholder make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal? Can you recommend a Aldwych conveyancing firm to represent me?
Where there is a absentee landlord or if there is dispute about the premium for a lease extension, under the relevant statutes you can apply to the LVT to arrive at the premium.
