We work with numerous conveyancing specialists who can conduct right to buy conveyancing You should get in touch with us with a view to obtain a costs calculation.

We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The lender mentioned the mortgage came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to use their panel conveyancer as I would much rather use a specialised conveyancing solicitor in Cringleford?

Do check but the chances are that allocate you one of their panel solicitors where you take up the "fee-free" incentive. Speak to the lender and explore if they allow a monetary alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards the cost for your conveyancing solicitor near Cringleford.

I have a mortgage with Leeds Building Society for my property in Cringleford. Conveyancing was finalised some time ago. In the event that I decide to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a BTL mortgage or inform Leeds Building Society?

You must advise Leeds Building Society in advance of letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Leeds Building Society’s mortgage conditions. In many cases banks or building societies will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Leeds Building Society directly. You need not do this via a Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel solicitor.

I can not work out if my lender requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Cringleford bank branch on a couple of occasions and was advised it wasn't a problem and they will lend. My Cringleford conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- called to say that they refuse to lend in accordance with their published requirements. Who do I believe?

The conveyancing practitioner has to follow the CML Handbook Part 2 provisions for your bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the lender will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the lender to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years remaining.

Planning on purchasing a maisonette in Cringleford. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Cringleford lawyer is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel.

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and found one round the corner in Cringleford I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 52 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Cringleford suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a home loan that many years will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.

The average costs for the paperwork that you are referring to is £350, in some cases it is in excess of £800.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed due diligence.
