Our offer on a semi in Hyde has been accepted, but there is a chain. The owners have offered on a flat, but it’s not yet agreed to, and have viewings of other flats in the pipeline. I have chosen a local conveyancing solicitor in Hyde. What do I do now? At what point do I apply for the mortgage with Santander?

It is usual to have apprehensions where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs prematurely (mortgage application is in the region of one thousand pounds, then valuation, Hyde conveyancing search charges, etc). First, you must ensure that your property lawyer is on the Santander conveyancing panel. As to the next stages this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your transaction, desire for the property and on the state of the market. During a buoyant market some home buyers will apply for the mortgage with Santander and arrange for the valuation and only if it comes back ok would they pay their conveyancer to move forward with the conveyancing in Hyde.

Should my conveyancer be raising questions concerning flooding during the conveyancing in Hyde.

The risk of flooding is if increasing concern for solicitors carrying out conveyancing in Hyde. There are those who purchase a house in Hyde, fully expectant that at some time, it may be flooded. However, leaving to one side the physical destruction, if a house is at risk of flooding, it may be difficult to get a mortgage, satisfactory building insurance, or sell the premises. Steps can be carried out during the course of a house purchase to forewarn the purchaser.

Lawyers are not best placed to offer advice on flood risk, but there are a number of searches that may be initiated by the buyer or by their solicitors which will figure out the risks in Hyde. The conventional set of property information forms given to a buyer’s lawyer (where the solicitors are adopting what is known as the Conveyancing Protocol) incorporates a usual question of the owner to discover if the property has ever been flooded. In the event that flooding has previously occurred and is not notified by the owner, then a purchaser may issue a claim for damages stemming from an misleading response. The buyer’s solicitors should also conduct an enviro search. This should disclose if there is a recorded flood risk. If so, further inquiries will need to be conducted.

I have been on the look out for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one close by in Hyde I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, however it only has 52 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Hyde suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a home loan that many years will be an issue. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the premises for at least twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.

My husband and I are new to the buying process - had an offer accepted, but the selling agent informed us that the owners will only proceed if we appoint the agent's preferred lawyers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Hyde

It is improbable the owners are behind this. Should the seller require ‘a quick sale', alienating a serious purchaser is going to damage their objectives. Try to communicate with the owners directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to instruct your preferred Hyde conveyancing firm - as opposed tothe ones that will give their estate agent a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by head office.
