Having sold my house in Loughborough last April but my buyer keeps telephoning daily to say their lawyer is waiting to hear from mylawyer. What are the post completion sale legalities now that I have sold?
Post completion of your sale your lawyer is obliged to forward the transfer deeds and all additional paperwork to the purchaser's lawyers. Depending on the transaction, your solicitor must also evidence that the mortgage has been redeemed to the buyers solicitors.

I am close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Loughborough and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers are using a web based conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Loughborough. We have lived in Loughborough for 4 years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to get confirmation need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing solicitor already. What do they say? You must check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same illness)

We expect to complete our sale of a £425,000 maisonette in Loughborough in just under a week. The management company has quoted £312 for Certificate of Compliance, insurance certificate and previous years statements of service charge. Is the landlord entitled to charge such fees for a flat conveyance in Loughborough?
Loughborough conveyancing on leasehold maisonettes often involves the purchaser’s solicitor sending questions for the landlord to answer. Although the landlord is under no legal obligation to respond to these enquiries the majority will be willing to assist. They are at liberty to levy a reasonable charge for answering enquiries or supplying documentation. There is no set fee. The average fee for the paperwork that you are referring to is over three hundred pounds, in some situations it exceeds £800. The management information fee levied by the landlord must be accompanied by a summary of rights and obligations in relation to administration fees, without which the invoice is technically not due. Reality however dictates that you have little option but to pay whatever is demanded should you wish to complete the sale of your home.

There are a lot of properties in Loughborough on private roads. We are buying one such house. Are there any advantages to buying a property on a private road?
Loughborough conveyancing solicitors will be familiar with dealing houseson private. Your property lawyer will investigate Land Registry data to find any rights or liabilities. In many cases there is a management company (wholly owned by residents) that proprietors pay into for the upkeep of the road. If one exists, the road should be maintained and appear better than publicly adopted.
