My lawyer informs me that he needs to check that the lender is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my conveyancer’s stance legitimate?

Your conveyancer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers.

We are intent on selling our home in Calverton and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using an internet conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Calverton. We have lived in Calverton for three years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation that there is no issue.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)

I today plan to offer on a house that appears to be perfect, at a reasonable figure which is making it more attractive. I have just discovered that it's a leasehold rather than freehold. I would have thought that there are particular concerns purchasing a leasehold house in Calverton. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been appointed. Will they explain the issues?

The majority of houses in Calverton are freehold and not leasehold. In this scenario it’s worth having a local conveyancer who is familiar with the area who can assist with the conveyancing process. We note that you are buying in Calverton so you should seriously consider looking for a Calverton conveyancing solicitor and be sure that they are used to advising on leasehold houses. As a matter of priority you will need to check the unexpired lease term. As a tenant you will not be at liberty to do whatever you want to the property. The lease comes with conditions for example obtaining the freeholder’spermission to conduct alterations. You may also be required to pay a service charge towards the upkeep of the communal areas where the house is part of an estate. Your conveyancer will advise you fully on all the issues.

I am the registered owner of a basement flat in Calverton, conveyancing formalities finalised 8 years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding flats in Calverton with over 90 years remaining are worth £202,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £60 levied per year. The lease ceases on 21st October 2083

With only 57 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £28,500 and £33,000 as well as legals.

The figure above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information without first getting professional advice.

We are in the process of purchasing a house in Calverton. Could the conveyancer have our transaction price a secret from sites such as Nestoria. Is this possible and how?
