I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I put an offer in two weeks back in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Cleckheaton is where the house is located. Is there any advice you can impart?

Flying freeholds in Cleckheaton are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses.

Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy.

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 premises.

Harry (my fiance) and I may need to rent out our Cleckheaton basement flat temporarily due to a career opportunity. We used a Cleckheaton conveyancing firm in 2002 but they have since shut and we did not think at the time seek any guidance as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?

Even though your last Cleckheaton conveyancing lawyer is not available you can review your lease to check if you are permitted to let out the apartment. The rule is that if the lease is non-specific, subletting is permitted. There may be a precondition that you need to obtain consent from your landlord or other appropriate person prior to subletting. This means that you cannot sublet in the absence of prior permission. Such consent should not be unreasonably withheld. If your lease does not allow you to sublet you should ask your landlord for their consent.

I inherited a split level flat in Cleckheaton, conveyancing having been completed 9 years ago. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Equivalent flats in Cleckheaton with an extended lease are worth £260,000. The ground rent is £45 yearly. The lease runs out on 21st October 2099

You have 74 years remaining on your lease we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £8,600 and £9,800 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

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 investigations. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.

I have recently placed an offer on a leasehold flat in Cleckheaton and the estate agent that we are using suggested his solicitor. He quoted nine hundred pounds excluding VAT and 3rd party costs. Does this sound like a good deal?

You should not rely on a single estimate. You should obtain like-for-like quotes for your conveyancing in Cleckheaton. Then pick one that you are comfortable with and crucially, is on the approved panel of the bank that you are sourcing your mortgage from.
