Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hingham

Can you help? My Hingham conveyancer is advising me that she is duty bound toconduct Hingham conveyancing searches stemming from the fact thatthe firm are on the Santanderapproved lawyer panel. These Hingham checks cost a lot of money can this be avoided?

Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. Given that you are taking out a loan with a bank your conveyancer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your conveyancer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to comply with the CML Handbook conditions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Hingham conveyancing searches.

I am looking to buy a property and need a conveyancing solicitor in Hingham who is on the Santander solicitor. Can you recommend a local solicitor?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Santander in certain locations such as Hingham. We dont recommend any particular firm.

The deeds to my property are lost. The lawyers who dealt with the conveyancing in Hingham 5 years ago are no longer around. Will I be able to sell the house?

As long as the title is registered the information relating to your ownership will be evidenced by the Land Registry with a Title Number. It is possible to perform a search at the Land Registry, find your property and get current copies of the property title for less than a fiver. If the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will also normally hold a certified duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be ordered for a small fee.

I opted to have a survey done on a house in Hingham before retaining solicitors. I have been advised that there is a flying freehold aspect to the house. Our surveyor has said that some lenders will refuse to grant a mortgage on a flying freehold house.

It varies from the lender to lender. HSBC has different requirements from Halifax. Should you wish to call us we can check with the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can help as they are accustomed to dealing with flying freeholds in Hingham.

I’m about to sell my garden flat in Hingham. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, however I have just received a half-yearly maintenance charge invoice – should I leave it to the buyer to sort out?

Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should pay the maintenance contribution as normal because all rents and service charges should be allotted on completion, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.

I acquired a ground floor flat in Hingham, conveyancing having been completed 6 years ago. How much will my lease extension cost? Similar flats in Hingham with over 90 years remaining are worth £179,000. The ground rent is £65 charged once a year. The lease runs out on 21st October 2083

With 57 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to range between £26,600 and £30,800 as well as costs.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive investigations. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
