Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Blaby

It is a dozen years since I acquired my house in Blaby. Conveyancing solicitors have just been retained on the sale but I am unable to locate my title deeds. Is this a major issue?

Don’t worry too much. First the deeds may be retained by your mortgage company or they may be in the possession of the solicitor who handled the purchase. Secondly in all probability the property will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers acquiring current official copies of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Blaby involves registered property but in the rare situation where your property is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is not insurmountable.

I am about to put a bid on a leasehold apartment in Blaby. The estate agents assure me that it is the norm for flats in Blaby to have less than 75 years unexpired on the lease. I am getting a mortgage with Bank of Ireland. Is this going to be acceptable if the lease has 69 years left.

Most leasehold conveyancing experts should be able to deal with a lease extension. if you are securing a mortgage then your lender may insist that the lease be extended before competition. Bank of Ireland have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook in relation to minimum unexpired lease terms. As of 13/10/2025 the requirements read as follows :

Yes, subject to a minimum lease term of 85 years. The unexpired lease term must be at least the mortgage term plus 45 years. See also 5.14.9

When it comes to lenders such as Bank of Ireland, do Blaby conveyancers face an annual charge to be on the conveyancing panel?

We are not aware of any mortgage company fees to register on their list of approved firms, although some do levy an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.

Can I be sure that the Blaby conveyancing solicitor on the UBS panel is any good?

When it comes to conveyancing in Blaby seeking recommendations is a sensible start. Before you go ahead, check if they offer a no sale no fee offer. Also, you often get what you pay for - a firm which quotes more, will often provide a better service than one advertising the lowest fees. We would always advocate that you speak with the lawyer handling your transaction.

It is unclear whether my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have telephoned my Blaby building society branch on various occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they would lend. My Blaby conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called to say that they will not lend based on their published requirements. Who do I believe?

As long as the solicitor is on the mortgage company approved list, they must comply with the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook provisions for the lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

I am buying a new build flat in Blaby. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Here is a sample of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Blaby

    The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Please supply a car parking plan.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a simple, chain free conveyancing. Blaby is where the house is located. Is there any guidance you can impart?

Flying freeholds in Blaby are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Blaby you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Blaby 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.

I need to appoint a conveyancing solicitor for remortgage conveyancing in Blaby. I happened to chance upon a web site which seems to have the perfect solution If it is possible to get all the legals completed via email that would be preferable. Do I need to be wary? What are the potential pitfalls?

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
