I bought my apartment on 8 June and the transaction details is not yet registered. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Hunstanton said it should be registered in a couple of weeks. Are properties in Hunstanton particularly slow to register?
There is nothing unique when it comes to conveyancing in Hunstanton registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry need to notify any other persons or bodies. As of today approximately three quarters of submission are fully addressed within two weeks but some can be subject to extensive hold-ups. Registration takes place once the purchaser is living at the property thus 'speed' is not typically primary concern but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers should contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I'm buying a new build house in Hunstanton benefiting from help to buy. The builders refused to move on the amount so I negotiated £7000 of additionals instead.

Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Hunstanton. Before diving in I require certainty as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Hunstanton - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
I purchased a garden flat in Hunstanton, conveyancing formalities finalised 7 years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding properties in Hunstanton with an extended lease are worth £202,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £60 invoiced annually. The lease terminates on 21st October 2082
With 56 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £29,500 and £34,000 plus professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed due diligence. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
We are in the midst of selling our flat in Hunstanton. Conveyancing lawyers are doing their job but we are being charged an extortionate amount from the managing agents. So far we have issued a cheque for £225 for a leasehold management pack and then a further £118 for supplemental questions supplied by the purchaser's property lawyer.
Your lawyer will not have any sway over the extent of the bill for this information but the typical fee for the information for Hunstanton leasehold property is £360. For Hunstanton conveyancing transactions it is usual for the vendor to pay for these costs. The landlord or their agents are under no legal obligation to answer these questions although many will agree to do so - albeit often at exorbitant prices out of proportion to the work involved. Regretfully there is no legislation that requires capped fees for administrative tasks. Nor is there any statutory time frame by which they are duty bound to supply answers.
