We opted for a Hyde based firm for our conveyancing in Hyde today. Upon checking the terms of engagement I noteI am on the hook for fees even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I ditch them and use an internet conveyancing company promoting no move no charge conveyancing in Hyde?
It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be more expensive to offset the conveyances that do not proceed. Please beware that these schemes rarely protect you from outlay such as Hyde conveyancing search costs.
The Hyde conveyancing firm handling our Hyde conveyancing has uncovered an inconsistency between the assumptions in the valuation report and what is revealed within the conveyancing documents. My solicitor informs me that he needs to ensure that the lender is happy with this discrepancy and is content to go ahead. Is my conveyancer’s stance legitimate?

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Hyde. Before diving in I would like to find out the number of years remaining on the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Hyde - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars 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 bought a split level flat in Hyde, conveyancing having been completed in 1997. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Equivalent properties in Hyde with an extended lease are worth £176,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 invoiced every year. The lease ceases on 21st October 2106
With just 80 years unexpired the likely cost is going to be between £8,600 and £9,800 plus professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. You should not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
