It has been 2 months following my purchase conveyancing in Burgess Hill took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one near me in Burgess Hill I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Burgess Hill in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?

If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this.

I am Googling for Burgess Hill online conveyancing estimates. Can I be sure that all the Burgess Hill practices that are identified on your directory are on the mortgage company conveyancing panel?

The law firms on our directory have assured us via an online form that they are on the mortgage company panel and agreed to advise us to take down their listing in the event of removal off of the bank panel. To date we have not been informed by either a lender or a member of the public that the data about a specific Burgess Hill conveyancing solicitor being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel is not accurate.
