As someone clueless as to the Hawkhurst conveyancing process what is the number one tip you can give me for the legal transfer of property in Hawkhurst

Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Hawkhurst and elsewhere in England and Wales is often a confrontational process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of room for conflict between you and others involved in the transaction. For instance, the vendor, property agent and on occasion your mortgage company. Appointing a lawyer for your conveyancing in Hawkhurst should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE party in the legal process whose responsibility is to protect your best interests and to keep you safe.

Every so often a third party with a vested interest may try and persuade you that you should follow their advice. For instance, the selling agent may claim to be helping by suggesting your conveyancer is slow. Or your mortgage broker may tell you to do something that is contrary to your solicitors guidance. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the conveyancing process.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Hawkhurst I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Hawkhurst suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
