What are your top tips when it comes to finding a Burton Latimer conveyancing firm to deal with our lease extension?

When appointing a solicitor for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Burton Latimer conveyancing firm) it is most important that they be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work. We advise that you make enquires with two or three firms including non Burton Latimer conveyancing practices before you instructing a firm. If the firm is ALEP accredited then that’s a bonus. The following questions might be helpful:

    How experienced is the practice with lease extension legislation? Can they put you in touch with clients in Burton Latimer who can give a testimonial?

I bought a 2 bed flat in Burton Latimer, conveyancing formalities finalised August 2009. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Corresponding properties in Burton Latimer with a long lease are worth £222,000. The ground rent is £50 levied per year. The lease terminates on 21st October 2095

With just 70 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to be between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as legals.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be additional concerns that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.

Developers have suggested I use a conveyancing practitioner and I've received a quote from them. It's nearly two hundred pounds cheaper than my own Burton Latimer property lawyer. What's the catch?

Housebuilders often have lists of solicitors who are quick and who know the seller’s contract and lawyer. Plenty of developers offer an inducement to choose their approved solicitor for this reason, any increased charges can be avoided and a builder won't suggest a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the conveyancing stall when they require an exchange within a tight time frame. A counter-argument for not agreeing to use the recommended conveyancing practitioner is that they may prove hesitant to 'push' your interests at the risk of upsetting the sellers. Where you have concerns that this may be the case you should stick with your local Burton Latimer conveyancing practitioner.
