Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I put an offer in two weeks back in what should have been a quick, chain free conveyancing. Cheddleton is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?

Flying freeholds in Cheddleton are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Cheddleton you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Cheddleton may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Helen (my wife) and I may need to rent out our Cheddleton garden flat temporarily due to taking a sabbatical. We instructed a Cheddleton conveyancing firm in 2001 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any guidance as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?

The lease dictates the relationship between the landlord and you the flat owner; specifically, it will say if subletting is not allowed, or permitted but only subject to certain conditions. The accepted inference is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is allowed. The majority of leases in Cheddleton do not prevent an absolute prevention of subletting – such a clause would adversely affect the market value the property. In most cases there is simply a requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly supplying a duplicate of the sublease.

I own a studio flat in Cheddleton, conveyancing formalities finalised May 2003. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Corresponding properties in Cheddleton with a long lease are worth £195,000. The ground rent is £45 per annum. The lease ceases on 21st October 2089

With just 64 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £14,300 and £16,400 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The figure above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional issues 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.

I am considering choosing an online conveyancer rather than a Cheddleton conveyancing practice. Should I ‘stay local’?

Various benefits exist in being able to pop in to a local Cheddleton conveyancing solicitor such as

  • signing documents and and when necessary
  • sometimes being able to speak to someone face-to-face can make a significant difference, particularly for more complex house moves
  • the ability to raise concerns if things are not going as expected

When comparing fees, look out for hidden extras. Most decent Cheddleton high street solicitors give an all-inclusive price. Often online companies appear to offer low cost prices, but have hidden 'extras' in the fine print.
