My flat in Limbury is up for sale and I have accepted an offer. Will my solicitor need to be on the Skipton conveyancing panel in order to deal with redeeming my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Skipton conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off.

The formalities of my purchase has taken place for my property in Limbury. Conveyancing was of an acceptable standard but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. Who do I contact should I wish to lodge a complaint?

Almost all lenders have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Department at head office. Ordinarily complaints to a lender are resolved very quickly. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service with full details of your complaint.

After what feels like an age I have had an offer on a maisonette in Limbury accepted, but there is a chain. The vendors have put an offer on a flat, but it’s not been accepted yet, and have viewings of other properties in the pipeline. I have chosen a bricks and mortar conveyancing solicitor in Limbury. What do I do now? At what stage do I apply for the mortgage with Barclays?

It is understandable to have concerns where there is a chain as you are unlikely to want to incur costs too early (mortgage application is approx one thousand pounds, then valuation, Limbury conveyancing search fees, etc). First, you should check that your conveyancer is on the Barclays approved list. Regarding the next stages this very much dictated by the uniqueness of your transaction, motivation for the property and on the state of the market. In a buoyant market the majority of buyers would apply for a home loan with Barclays and arrange for the valuation and only if it was satisfactory would they ask their solicitor to move forward with the conveyancing in Limbury.

Set out below are examples of a few leasehold new build questions that you may expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Limbury

    The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided. The Vendor must covenant to keep unoccupied units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Please supply evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.

I am looking for a flat up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Limbury I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 52 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Limbury in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
