It is 10 years ago since I acquired my home in Hatch End. Conveyancing solicitors have just been retained on the sale but I can't track down the deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly the deeds may be with your lender or they could be in the possession of the solicitor who acted in the purchase. Secondly the chances are that the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors procuring current official copies of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Hatch End involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.

is it true that all Hatch End solicitors on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel are regulated by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?

As solicitors, in order to be on the Clydesdale approved list of solicitors they would need to be regulated by the SRA. Many banks do allow licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such firms would be overseen by the Council of Licensed Conveyancers.

I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Hatch End off the council. I have a mortgage offer with Barclays. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Barclays, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Barclays conveyancing panel.

I am due to exchange contracts on my apartment. I had a double glazing fitted in April 2007, but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My purchaser’s mortgage company, Nottingham are being problematic. The Hatch End solicitor who is on the Nottingham conveyancing panel is happy to accept ‘lack of building regulation’ insurance but Nottingham are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Nottingham have a conveyancing panel if they don't accept advice from them?

It is probably the case that Nottingham have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Nottingham may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing was correctly and safely installed. The indemnity insurance merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one round the corner in Hatch End I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Hatch End for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.

I am 14 days into a leasehold purchase having been referred to conveyancers by the high street agent to carry out the conveyancing in Hatch End. I am not happy. Can you you assist me in finding new conveyancers?

They would need to be really bad to suggest replacing them. Has your mortgage been generated? If so you will need to make them aware of the new solicitor and get the loan are issued to the new lawyers. Your conveyancer should be on the banks panel to avoid added fees and complications. That should be your starting point. Our search tool will assist you in finding a lender approved lawyer for your home move in Hatch End

My husband and I may need to let out our Hatch End 1st floor flat for a while due to taking a sabbatical. We used a Hatch End conveyancing firm in 2001 but they have closed and we did not have the foresight to seek any guidance as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?

Some leases for properties in Hatch End do contain a provision to say that subletting is only allowed with permission. The landlord cannot unreasonably refuse but, in such cases, they would need to review references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.

I have tried to negotiate informally with with my landlord to extend my lease without any joy. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on such issues? Can you recommend a Hatch End conveyancing firm to help?

Absolutely. We can put you in touch with a Hatch End conveyancing firm who can help.
