At what point can the exchange of contracts take place for purchase conveyancing in Collier Row and am I required to be at the lawyers branch?
Where you are in close proximity to our conveyancing solicitors in Collier Row you are welcome to attend to sign the paperwork. That being said, the firms we work with provide a countrywide conveyancing service and provide as equally diligent and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The executing of the property agreement is not the point of no return. A signed contract is necessary for the firm to officially exchange when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is is usually a five minute process, although where a long "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Collier Row)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

The deeds to my house are lost. The conveyancers who handled the conveyancing in Collier Row 4 years ago are no longer around. Will I be able to sell the house?
As long as the title is registered the details of your proprietorship will be held by the Land Registry with a Title Number. It is possible to execute a search at the Land Registry, identify your house and obtain current copies of the Registered Entries for a small fee. If the title is Leasehold then the Land Registry will in most cases hold a file copy of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be obtained for a small fee.
I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one near me in Collier Row I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years on the lease. There is not much else in Collier Row for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
