Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Aldermore conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale.

You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their requirements fairly frequently at the moment.

I have just started marketing my garden apartment in Horbury. Conveyancing solicitors are to be appointed soon, but I have just received a quarterly service charge demand – what should I do?

The sensible thing to do is pay the invoice as you normally would as all ground rent and maintenance invoices should be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you should recover the relevant percentage by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most managing agents 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. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

I purchased a garden flat in Horbury, conveyancing formalities finalised 4 years ago. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Comparable flats in Horbury with an extended lease are worth £171,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 invoiced every year. The lease expires on 21st October 2104

With just 79 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to span between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as legals.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other concerns that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
