After what seems like an age a mortgage agreement from Santander for the remortgage of my 4 bedroom maisonette is expected within the next few days. Are you able to suggest a low cost conveyancing practitioner in Bilston?
You have come to the wrong site to search for the cheapest conveyancing in Bilston. We can offer you cost effective conveyancing but we do not aim to advertise as being the cheapest.

Do the conveyancing lawyers that you recommend carry out auction conveyancing in Bilston?
There are a few niche solicitors we can connect you with those specialising in auction conveyancing. Bilston is just one of hundreds of locations where our lawyers cover.
I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and found one close by in Bilston I like with open areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Bilston for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.

I’m about to sell my 2 bed apartment in Bilston. Conveyancing has not commenced, but I have recently received a yearly maintenance charge invoice – Do I pay up?
The sensible thing to do is pay the invoice as usual because all ground rent and service payments will be apportioned on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
