Last month we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Skipton. Ashbourne conveyancing lawyers are instructed. How long does it take for Skipton to send the offer to the property lawyer?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Skipton conducted the valuation? Have you advised Skipton as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Skipton conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
About to purchase house in Ashbourne. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Ashbourne property lawyer is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in a fortnight ago in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Ashbourne is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Ashbourne are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Ashbourne you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Ashbourne 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.

As co-executor for the will of my grandfather I am selling a property in Newport but I am based in Ashbourne.

We own a leasehold flat in Ashbourne. Conveyancing was finalised in five years ago. I have been told that I should not let the the remaining lease term to fall too low. Is this correct?
Ashbourne residential long term leases are for a prescribed period - often ninety nine years when they are first granted. However many flats in Ashbourne were built or converted in the 60’s and so these leases now have under eighty years left to run. This may seem like a long time however Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage lenders on the whole need leases to have a minimum of 75 years remaining to be mortgageable. This means that when you come to sell the property you will need a lease extension if you are getting close to seventy five years. To enhance your property value you should be considering whether to extend your lease well in advance of selling the property. Furthermore strong financial reasons to taking action before the lease reaches even eighty years as when the lease is less than 80 years the premium to be paid to extend starts to get a lot more expensive.
