Our conveyancer has advised that he intends to complete and exchange simultaneously on the disposal of our £400,000 maisonette in Felling and Pelaw next Monday. The freeholder has quoted £360 for Landlord’s certificate, building insurance schedule and 3 years statements of service charge. Is it legal for a freeholder to charge such fees for a leasehold conveyance in Felling and Pelaw?

You have 54 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to be between £32,300 and £37,400 plus costs.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other concerns that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations.

Your conveyancer being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel is duty bound to disclose to the mortgage company of any changes to the sale amount.
