Completed the sale of my flat in Frodsham last April yet the purchaser is calling me to say her conveyancer is waiting to hear from mine. What should my lawyer have done following completion?
Following your sale your conveyancer is committed to deliver the transfer deeds and all supplemental paperwork to the buyer’s lawyers. Depending on the transaction, your conveyancer must also send confirmation that the home loan has been discharged to the buyers lawyers.

How does conveyancing in Frodsham differ for new build properties?
Most buyers of new build premises in Frodsham contact us having been asked by the seller to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because developers in Frodsham tend to acquire the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Frodsham or who has acted in the same development.
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one near me in Frodsham I like with a park and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Frodsham suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a lease with such few years left?
If you require a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.
