Please help - my lawyer advises that missing deeds insurance is necessary on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Dukinfield?

The appropriate level of missing deeds indemnity insurance depends on who your lender is. It would differ for example between Santander and Skipton Building Society. Conveyancing lawyers as opposed to borrowers take out such insurances.

I happen to be the sole recipient of my late mum's will with all property in now in my sole name, including the my former home in Dukinfield. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in August. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership could be regarded the same way as if I'd bought the house in August. Will no one buy the property for half a year?

The CML handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be affected by that. many lenders would take a practical view as this requirement is chiefly there to capture subsales or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.

After much negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Dukinfield. My mortgage broker suggested a solicitor. I paid an upfront payment of £150. Not long after, the conveyancer contacted me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Barclays conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Barclays panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one round the corner in Dukinfield I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Dukinfield in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a short lease?

Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you could request that they 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 consult your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.

I am Googling for Dukinfield online conveyancing estimates. Can I be assured that all the Dukinfield firms that are listed on your website are on the bank conveyancing panel?
