Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Hucknall

We instructed a local solicitor for our conveyancing in Hucknall last week. After carefully reading the Terms and Conditions I notewe are responsible for charges even if the sale doesn't happen. Would I be best advised to choose an internet conveyancing company promoting no move no charge conveyancing in Hucknall?

Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be higher to offset the cases that fail to complete. Also remember that such schemes generally do not cover outlay e.g. Hucknall conveyancing search charges.

We are buying a flat and require a conveyancing solicitor in Hucknall who is on the HSBC solicitor panel. Can you recommend a local conveyancing firm?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for HSBC . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in Hucknall.

My wife and I own a terraced Georgian house in Hucknall. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and The Mortgage Works. I happened to do a free search for it on the Land Registry database and I saw two entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same address. I'd like to know for sure, how can I find out??

You need to read the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Hucknall and other areas of the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they remortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with buyers. You can also enquire as to the situation with your conveyancing lawyer who conducted the conveyancing.

The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build flat in Hucknall. Conveyancing is a frightening process at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. Can you give me some examples of some of the questions asked in new build conveyancing.

Set out below are examples of a selection of leasehold new build enquiries that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Hucknall

    The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. Forfeiture - bankruptcy or liquidation must not apply under this provision.

My husband and I are FTB’s - had an offer accepted, but the agent told us that the owners will only proceed if we use the agent's recommended solicitors as they want an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Hucknall

It is improbable the sellers are behind this. If they want ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious buyer is not the way to achieve this. Try to communicate with the sellers directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances arranged © you have nothing to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to appoint your own,trusted Hucknall conveyancing lawyers - as opposed tothe ones that will earn their estate agent a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing figures pre-set by head office.

What advice can you give us when it comes to appointing a Hucknall conveyancing firm to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?

When appointing a property lawyer for your lease extension (regardless if they are a Hucknall conveyancing practice) it is imperative that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of conveyancing. We suggest that you talk with several firms including non Hucknall conveyancing practices before you instructing a firm. If the firm is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions might be of use:

    If the firm is not ALEP accredited then why not?

I bought a 1st floor flat in Hucknall, conveyancing formalities finalised in 2000. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Corresponding flats in Hucknall with over 90 years remaining are worth £260,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 invoiced annually. The lease ends on 21st October 2100

With only 75 years unexpired the likely cost is going to span between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to provide a more accurate figure without more detailed due diligence. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
