I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Baglan is the location of the property. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Baglan are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Baglan you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Baglan 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 premises.

As co-executor for the will of my grandmother I am disposing of a house in Swansea but live in Baglan. My lawyer (approximately 260 miles awayrequires that I sign a stat dec ahead of completion. Could you suggest a conveyancing practitioner in Baglan to witness this legal document for me?

Technically speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily any notary public or qualified solicitor will do regardless of whether they are based in Baglan

What makes a Baglan lease defective?

There is nothing unique about leasehold conveyancing in Baglan. All leases are individual and drafting errors can sometimes mean that certain sections are wrong. The following missing provisions could result in a defective lease:

    A provision for the recovery of money spent for the benefit of another party. Maintenance charge proportions which don’t add up to the correct percentage

You could have difficulties when selling your property if you have a defective lease as they can affect a potential buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage. Santander, Bank of Scotland, and Barclays Direct all have very detailed requirements when it comes to what is expected in a lease. Where a lender has been advised by their lawyers that the lease does not cover certain provisions they may refuse to provide security, forcing the purchaser to withdraw.

I own a 1st floor flat in Baglan, conveyancing having been completed in 2003. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Corresponding properties in Baglan with a long lease are worth £201,000. The ground rent is £45 levied per year. The lease expires on 21st October 2091

You have 65 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £13,300 and £15,400 plus professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more detailed investigations. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information before getting professional advice.

Online reading suggests that Baglan solicitors are more costly than Baglan conveyancers in Baglan to use when purchasing a house. So is it better if I use a conveyancer or a solicitor if I am buying for my home move in Baglan.
