My fiancee and I are spending time looking at flats in Audenshaw and I am now considering a potential offer. Should I already have a property lawyer appointed at this stage? I will be getting a home loan with Santander.

How does conveyancing in Audenshaw differ for newly converted properties?

Most buyers of new build property in Audenshaw approach us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is built. This is because house builders in Audenshaw usually purchase the site, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Audenshaw or who has acted in the same development.

Due to the guidance of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Audenshaw before appointing lawyers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. My surveyor advised that some mortgage companies tend not issue a loan on this type of property.

It varies from the lender to lender. Bank of Scotland has different requirements for example to Nationwide. If you e-mail us we can investigate further via the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Audenshaw. Conveyancing will be smoother if you use a solicitor in Audenshaw especially if they are familiar with such properties in Audenshaw.

Frank (my husband) and I may need to sub-let our Audenshaw 1st floor flat for a while due to a new job. We used a Audenshaw conveyancing firm in 2002 but they have closed and we did not think at the time seek any advice as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?

Even though your previous Audenshaw conveyancing lawyer is not around you can review your lease to see if you are permitted to let out the property. The rule is that if the lease is silent, subletting is allowed. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you are obliged to obtain consent via your landlord or other appropriate person before subletting. The net result is you not allowed to sublet in the absence of prior consent. The consent should not be unreasonably withheld. If the lease does not allow you to sublet you will need to ask your landlord for their consent.

I own a split level flat in Audenshaw, conveyancing having been completed 3 years ago. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Similar properties in Audenshaw with a long lease are worth £191,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £55 per annum. The lease ceases on 21st October 2079

You have 54 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £31,400 and £36,200 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward placing reliance on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
