Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Nottingham. Beaworthy conveyancing practitioners have been appointed. How long does it take for Nottingham to send the offer to the conveyancer?

There is no definitive answer here. Have Nottingham done the valuation? Have you advised Nottingham as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Nottingham conveyancing panel? Sometimes it can take as long as six weeks for a mortgage offer to be issued.

I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Beaworthy off the council. I have a mortgage offer with Coventry BS. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Coventry BS, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel.

Despite weeks of looking the Title Certificate and documents to my property can not be found. The lawyers who handled the conveyancing in Beaworthy 10 years ago no longer exist. What do I do?

As long as you have a registered title the information relating to your ownership will be retained by HMLR with a Title Number. It is possible to perform a search at the Land Registry, locate your house and secure up to date copies of the property title for a small fee. If the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will usually retain a certified copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be ordered for twenty pounds.

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 straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Beaworthy is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Beaworthy are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Beaworthy you must be sure that your lawyer goes 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 Beaworthy may decide 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.

Am I best advised to go with a Beaworthy conveyancing solicitor who is local to the property I am hoping to buy? I have an old university friend who can conduct the legal formalities but his firm is located 400kilometers drive away.

The primary upside of using a local Beaworthy conveyancing practice is that you can attend the office to sign documents, present your ID and apply pressure on them where appropriate. Having local Beaworthy know how is a benefit. That being said 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 in the main were impressed that should surpass using an unknown Beaworthy conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being Beaworthy based.

I own a leasehold house in Beaworthy. Conveyancing and Godiva Mortgages Ltd mortgage went though with no issue. A letter has just been received from someone claiming to own the reversionary interest in the property. It included a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1995. The conveyancing solicitor in Beaworthy who acted for me is not around. What should I do?

The first thing you should do is make enquiries of the Land Registry to be sure that this person is in fact the registered owner of the freehold reversion. You do not need to incur the fees of a Beaworthy conveyancing firm to do this as it can be done on-line for a few pound. Rest assured that in any event, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.

I purchased a studio flat in Beaworthy, conveyancing formalities finalised June 1995. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Comparable flats in Beaworthy with a long lease are worth £211,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 per annum. The lease ceases on 21st October 2093

You have 67 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £10,500 and £12,000 as well as costs.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
