If you had a top tip for selecting a conveyancing solicitor in Brough what would it be?
We would encourage you not to go for the lowest Brough conveyancing costs illustration. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.
When it comes to lenders such as RBS, do Brough lawyers face a yearly amount to be on the list of approved solicitors?
We are not aware of any mortgage company fees to register on their list of approved firms, although some do charge an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.
At last I have had an offer on a maisonette in Brough accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have placed an offer on a flat, but it’s not been accepted yet, and are looking at other apartments in the pipeline. I have chosen a nearby conveyancing solicitor in Brough. What should be my next step? When should I get the mortgage application with Clydesdale started?
It is usual to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket prematurely (home loan application is approx £1k, then survey, Brough conveyancing search costs, etc). First, you should check that your conveyancer is on the Clydesdale approved list. Regarding the subsequent steps this very much depends on the circumstances of your transaction, attraction to the property and on the state of the market. In a hot market some buyers would apply for a home loan with Clydesdale and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they pay their property lawyer to move forward with the conveyancing in Brough.

There are only 72 years unexpired on my lease in Brough. I now wish to get lease extension but my landlord is can not be found. What are my options?
On the basis that you qualify, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can apply to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be granted an extra 90 years by the magistrate. You will be obliged to demonstrate that you or your lawyers have made all reasonable attempts to track down the lessor. For most situations an enquiry agent may be helpful to conduct investigations and prepare a report which can be used as proof that the freeholder is indeed missing. It is wise to seek advice from a property lawyer both on investigating the landlord’s absence and the vesting order request to the County Court overseeing Brough.

The answer will be important as a) areas could cause problems in the building as the common areas may begin to deteriorate if repairs are not paid for b) if the tenants have a dispute with the running of the building you will want to know about it
We own a leasehold flat in Brough. Conveyancing was finished in 2010. I have heard that I should not let the the remaining lease term to fall too short. What is the reasoning?
Brough residential long term leases are for a fixed period - normally ninety nine years when they started. However a significant appartments in Brough were constructed or converted 35 or more years ago and so these leases now have fewer than eighty years remaining. This may sound like a long time but Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage institutions tend to need leases to have at least 75 years left to adequate security. Accordingly when you come to sell the property you will need to extend the term of your lease if you are nearing seventy five years. To enhance your property value you should be thinking about whether or not to extend your lease well in advance of selling the property. Furthermore significant benefits to taking action before the lease hits 80 years as when the lease falls below 80 years the amount you have to pay to extend starts to escalate.
