Why would one instruct a Croston conveyancing solicitors firm when national conveyancers are cheap by comparison?
Its a good idea to get 2 or 3 like-for-like quotes for conveyancing costs in Croston and you should seek a reasonable fee calculation but don’t expend your energy scouring the internet for the lowest priced Croston conveyancer.

I have given 2 months notice to my current landlord and have to be out of my let out apartment in Croston by 13/5/2025. Conveyancing on my purchase is underway. Is it possible to complete in 5 weeks as I wish to avoid having to find short term accommodation?
Generally one should not serve notice on a rental until your lawyer suggests that you should. If you have not previously done so, notify to your lawyer and request that they cajole the owners solicitors, try to a target completion date that all parties will look towards
This question may be naive but I am unseasoned as a 1st time buyer of a garden flat in Croston. Do I receive the keys to the premises on completion from my solicitor? If so, I will appoint a local conveyancing solicitor in Croston?
On the day of completion you will not be required to go to the conveyancers office in Croston. Your solicitors will arrange to send the completion advance to the vendor’s lawyers, and shortly after the monies have arrived, you should be invited to pick up the keys from the selling Agents and move into your new home. This tends to happen between 1 and 3pm.
Two weeks ago we had a mortgage agreed in principle with Lloyds. Croston conveyancing lawyers have been appointed. What is the average time that one could expect to receive a mortgage offer from Lloyds?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Lloyds conducted the survey? Have you informed Lloyds as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Lloyds conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
I can not fathom if my mortgage offer requires a lease extension. I have called into my local Croston bank branch on various occasions and was told it does not impact the mortgage offer and they would lend. My Croston conveyancing solicitor - who is on the lender conveyancing panel- called to say that they would not lend in accordance with their specific requirements. I have no idea who is right.
Provided that the conveyancer is on the mortgage company panel, they must adhere to the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook specifications for the bank. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank 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 left on the lease.
I am purchasing my first flat in Croston with the aid of help to buy. The builders refused to move on the amount so I negotiated 6k of additionals instead. The house builders rep advised me not reveal to my lawyer about this extras as it will affect my loan with the bank. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the builder of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I am attracted to a two apartments in Croston both have about fifty years remaining on the leases. should I be concerned?
A lease is a right to use the premises for a period of time. As a lease gets shorter the marketability of the lease decreases and results in it becoming more expensive to extend the lease. For this reason it is often a good idea to extend the lease term. It is often difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage companies may be unwilling to lend money on properties of this type. Lease extension can be a protracted process. We advise that you get professional help from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this area.
