Having sold my house in Derby last February yet the purchaser is telephoning me complaining that their solicitor is waiting to hear from mylawyer. What should my lawyer have done following completion?

Where relevant, your conveyancer must also send confirmation that the mortgage has been repaid to the purchasers conveyancers. There are no post completion steps specific conveyancing in Derby.

I am due to exchange contracts on my house. I had a double glazing fitted in June 2008, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s lender, UBS are being pedantic. The Derby solicitor who is on the UBS conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but UBS are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do UBS have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that UBS have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why UBS may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
Our sealed bid on a semi in Derby has been accepted, but there is a chain. The sellers have offered on a flat, but it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other properties in the pipeline. I have instructed a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Derby. What should be my next step? When do I get the mortgage application with Principality started?
It is normal to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to be too out of pocket too early (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Derby conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you should ensure that your conveyancing practitioner is on the Principality conveyancing panel. As to the next steps this very much dictated by the circumstances of your case, motivation for this property and on the state of the market. In a hot market many home buyers would apply for a home loan with Principality and pay for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they request their conveyancer to press on with the conveyancing in Derby.

I am a negotiator for a long established estate agent office in Derby where we have experienced a few leasehold sales put at risk due to leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received contradictory information from local Derby conveyancing firms. Please can you confirm whether the seller of a flat can instigate the lease extension formalities for the purchaser on completion of the sale?
Provided that the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer need not have to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.
Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.
I bought a basement flat in Derby, conveyancing was carried out half a dozen years ago. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Corresponding flats in Derby with over 90 years remaining are worth £206,000. The ground rent is £45 per annum. The lease ends on 21st October 2090
With just 65 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £13,300 and £15,400 as well as legals.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more detailed investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other issues that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action placing reliance on this information before getting professional advice.
