Just contacted my conveyancing lawyer in Freshwater who completed the legal work 18 months ago requesting a conveyancing estimate based on an identical type of house sale & purchase (a leasehold property and a freehold premises) of similar values with a mortgage from TSB. It looks as though am now being quoted twice the amount. Should I hunt for an alternative property lawyer?

I purchased a studio flat in Freshwater, conveyancing having been completed half a dozen years ago. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Equivalent properties in Freshwater with a long lease are worth £201,000. The ground rent is £45 invoiced every year. The lease finishes on 21st October 2090
With just 65 years unexpired the likely cost is going to span between £13,300 and £15,400 as well as professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action based on this information without first getting professional advice.
My conveyancers in Freshwater have advised me that they can not locate my conveyancing file. To assist with my purchase I took out a mortgage with the mortgage company. Is it case that being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel they need to have retained the file for a number of years?
Different lenders have different requirements but many of the Terms and Conditions of Conveyancing Panel Appointment require the file to be held for a period of 6 years. That being said we have not seen a copy of the mortgage company Conveyancing Panel Terms. It might be worth you contacting the lender directly.
