I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Aperfield is the location of the property. Can you offer any advice?

Flying freeholds in Aperfield are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Aperfield you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Aperfield 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 residence.

Given that I am about to part with hundreds of thousands of pounds on a property in Aperfield I would like to talk to a lawyer regarding theconveyancing ahead of giving the go ahead to the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?

This is something that we encourage - it is our preference to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you liaising with the conveyancer who will be carrying out your property ownership legalities in Aperfield.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - every client is unique individual, not a case number. The practices that we put you in touch with believe that the figure you are provided with for residential conveyancing in Aperfield should be the amount on the final invoice that you end up paying.

Is it best to instruct a Aperfield conveyancing practitioner based in the vicinity that I am hoping to buy? An old friend can execute the legal formalities however her office is a couple of hundredkilometers drive away.

The benefit of a local Aperfield conveyancing firm is that you can pop in to execute documents, hand in your identification documents and pester them where appropriate. They will also have local intelligence which is a bonus. However it's more important to get someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who used your friend and on the whole were content that must trump using an unfamiliar Aperfield conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being round the corner.

My wife and I purchased a leasehold house in Aperfield. Conveyancing and HSBC Bank mortgage went though with no issue. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. It included a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1998. The conveyancing solicitor in Aperfield who previously acted has long since retired. Any advice?

The first thing you should do is make enquiries of HMLR to be sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is in fact the new freeholder. There is no need to instruct a Aperfield conveyancing lawyer to do this as it can be done on-line for less than a fiver. You should note that regardless, even if this is the legitimate freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

After months of dialogue we are unable to agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Aperfield. Can we issue an application to the Residential Property Tribunal Service?

Most definitely. We are happy to put you in touch with a Aperfield conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Lease Extension decision for a Aperfield flat is 1 Southlands Court Southlands Road in September 2013.

The unexpired term was 50.57 years.

My husband and I are buying a 2 room bungalowin Aperfield with a residential mortgage from a bank. We like our conveyancer in Aperfield but our mortgage company inform us now that he's not listed on their "panel". We have to appoint from the our bank panel solicitors or stay with our Aperfield conveyancer and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The bank home loan offered to you is subject to conditions, one of which will be that solicitors will on the mortgage company's conveyancing panel. in the past, most mortgage companies had open panels, including many conveyancing solicitors in Aperfield : a mortgagee could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your bank.
