We are a couple about to sign contracts for a garden flat in Euxton. We encountered a problem. Our loan offer with Clydesdale runs out on 7/7/2026 but the sellers are putting forward a completion date of 9/7/2026. Is it possible to extend the mortgage expiry date?
The person best placed to address this question is your lawyer who is in a position to determine if they should be discussing with the mortgage company, vendor’s solicitors, selling agents or indeed all parties based on what has gone on in your transaction to date.
Is there a reason why leasehold purchase conveyancing in Euxton costs more?
Euxton leasehold conveyancing transactions usually involve additional investigations than freeholds including investigating the Lease, liaising with the Landlord such as serving appropriate notices on the Landlord or managing agent, obtaining up-to-date service charge and management information, obtaining Landlord’s consents and reviewing management accounts and formation documents.
Will my conveyancing lawyers need to check that the building insurance when buying a house in Euxton. My lender is Bank of Ireland
Bank of Ireland have specific requirements as set out in the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook. As of 7/5/2026, the requirements read as follows :
4 months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Euxton took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
I have been on the look out for a flat up to £245,000 and found one round the corner in Euxton I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Euxton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a home loan that many years will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can 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 term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
I am looking to sell my property. My former solicitors closed down. It would be helpful to have a recommendation of a conveyancing firm. I happen to live in Euxton if that affects matters.
