We are planning to move property in November. Will my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you put forward a removal company in Hopton. Conveyancing lawyer was found before I stumbled across this page.

On the day of completion you will need to pick up the house keys from your estate agent but this should only take place once the vendors solicitors inform the agent that they acknowledge receipt of the completion payment and the keys can be released.

I'm the only recipient of my late mum's estate and I have everything in my name alone, including the my former home in Hopton. The Hopton property was put into my name in September. I want to move. I do know about the CML 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be treated the same way as if I'd bought the house in September. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?

The Council of Mortgage Lenders’ handbook mandates conveyancers to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be affected by that. How sensible a view mortgage companies take of it, depend on the mortgage company as this requirement chiefly exists to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the quick reselling of properties.

When it comes to mortgage companies such as Kent Reliance, do Hopton solicitors incur a yearly amount to be on the conveyancing panel?

We are not aware of any bank fees to be on their list of approved firms, although some do charge an administration fee to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel submission.

What makes a Hopton lease unmortgageable?

Leasehold conveyancing in Hopton is not unique. Most leases are unique and drafting errors can result in certain clauses are not included. For example, if your lease is missing any of the following, it could be defective:

    A provision to repair to or maintain parts of the premises

A defective lease can cause problems when trying to sell a property as they can affect a potential buyer’s ability to obtain a mortgage. Accord Mortgages Ltd, Bank of Scotland, and Aldermore all have very detailed requirements when it comes to what is expected in a lease. If a mortgage lender believes that the lease is problematic they may refuse to provide security, forcing the purchaser to withdraw.

I bought a studio flat in Hopton, conveyancing formalities finalised half a dozen years ago. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Similar flats in Hopton with over 90 years remaining are worth £201,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 yearly. The lease finishes on 21st October 2089

With only 64 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £14,300 and £16,400 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to provide a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations.
