Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my solicitor in Custom House is not identified on my lender's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of his work?

It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are plenty of plausible explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator indicated that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel.

About to purchase a new build flat in Custom House. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.

Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Custom House

    Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision. The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. Please supply a car parking plan.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £235,500 and found one near me in Custom House I like with a park and transport links in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Custom House in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?

If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be problematic. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.

I'm converting the mortgage on my current property to a buy to let loan with TSB and I will use the rest of the raised equity towards further house. The neighborhood we are talking about is Custom House. Will your lawyers be able to act for both sets of banks and link together the two deals?

Do use our comparison tool on this page to ensure that the conveyancers are on the appropriate lender panels. Assuming that they are the conveyancer will be able to simultaneously deal with the two conveyancing matters but you should talk with you lawyer and make apparent your desired outcome and needs.
