I am purchasing a end of terrace house in Blackwall. We would like to carry out an extension to the side at the house.Will the conveyancing process include investigations to determine if these works were previously refused?
Your solicitor should check the registered title as conveyancing in Blackwall will on occasion identify restrictions in the title deeds which prohibit certain changes or need the consent of a 3rd party. Many extensions need local authority planning permissions and approval in accordance building regulations. Many locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions.

I can not work out if my lender requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Blackwall bank branch on numerous occasions and was advised it wasn't a problem and they would lend. My Blackwall conveyancing solicitor - who is on the bank conveyancing panel- called to say that they would not lend in accordance with their UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook minimum lease term requirements. Who do I believe?
The conveyancing practitioner has to comply with the CML Handbook Part 2 provisions for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender 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 mortgage company to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

The benefit of a high street Blackwall conveyancing practice is that you can attend the office to execute documents, hand in your ID and pester them if necessary. Having local Blackwall know how is a bonus. However nothing is more important than finding someone that will do a good and efficient job. If other friends have instructed your friend and on the whole were happy that should surpass using an unfamiliar Blackwall conveyancing solicitor just because they are Blackwall based.
