I'm buying my first flat in Essex with the aid of help to buy. The builders refused to move on the amount so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead. The house builders rep advised me not inform my conveyancer about this deal as it may adversely affect my mortgage with The Mortgage Works. Do I keep my lawyer in the dark?.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £195,000 and found one close by in Essex I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Essex suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage that many years will be problematic. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities 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.

My husband and I are novice buyers - agreed a price, yet the selling agent advised that the vendor will only go ahead if we use the agent's recommended lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Essex
It is unlikely the vendors are driving this. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Bypass the agents and go straight to the owners and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you are going to appoint your preferred Essex conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthe ones that will earn the estate agent a referral fee or achieve conveyancing targets set by head office.
I have just appointed agents to market my basement flat in Essex.Conveyancing has not commenced but I have recently received a yearly service charge invoice – what should I do?
It best that you pay the maintenance contribution as usual because all ground rent and maintenance payments should be apportionedas part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process
