My bid for a property was accepted at auction in Blakedown. Conveyancing is necessary. What is next?

After much negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Blakedown. My financial adviser recommended their conveyancers. I paid an on account payment of £175. A few days later, the solicitor called me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Bank of Ireland panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
I have finally had an offer on an apartment in Blakedown agreed to, but there is a chain. The owners have placed an offer on on an apartment, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other properties in the pipeline. I have instructed a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Blakedown. What should be my next step? At what stage do I apply for the mortgage with Nationwide?
It is understandable to have anxieties where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of £1k, then valuation, Blakedown conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you should ensure that your solicitor is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. As to the subsequent phase this very much dictated by the specifics of your case, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. In a hot market the majority of purchasers would apply for the mortgage with Nationwide and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their property lawyer to proceed with searches.

I have just started marketing my 2 bed apartment in Blakedown. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, however I have recently had a yearly service charge demand – Do I pay up?
The sensible thing to do is discharge the service charge as usual as all ground rent and service invoices should be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer 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. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
I own a basement flat in Blakedown, conveyancing formalities finalised in 2000. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding flats in Blakedown with a long lease are worth £222,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 levied per year. The lease ends on 21st October 2096

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 without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information before getting professional advice.
