I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one close by in Earl Shilton I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease.

Should you require a home loan that many years will be an issue. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.

My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, but the property agent informed us that the owners will only go ahead if we appoint the agent's preferred solicitors as they need an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a high street conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Earl Shilton
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this ultimatum. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Speak to the vendors direct and make the point that (a)you are genuine purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you are unencumbered (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to use your preferred Earl Shilton conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthe ones that will give the negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by HQ.
I happen to be an executor of my recently deceased aunt’s Will, with a house in Earl Shilton which is to be sold. The bungalow has never been registered at the Land Registry and I'm advised that many EAs will insist that it is in place before they'll move forward. What's the mechanism for this?
In the circumstances that you have set out it seems prudent to apply to register in the names of the personal representative(s) as named in the probate and in their capacity as PRs. The Land Registry’s online guidance explains how to register for the first time and what is required re the deeds and forms. You would need to include and certified copy of the probate as well and complete the form FR1 to refer to the PRs as the applicant.
