There is lots of here about conveyancing in Lyddington but what is your top tip for choosing the right conveyancer in Lyddington
It would be unwise to be swayed by the cheapest Lyddington conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you go into the conveyancing with your eyes wide open.

I own a leasehold house in Lyddington. Conveyancing and Norwich and Peterborough Building Society mortgage are in place. A letter has just been received from someone claiming to own the reversionary interest in the property. It included a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1996. The conveyancing practitioner in Lyddington who previously acted has long since retired. What should I do?
The first thing you should do is make enquiries of HMLR to be sure that the individual claiming to own the freehold is in fact the new freeholder. You do not need to incur the fees of a Lyddington conveyancing practitioner to do this as it can be done on-line for a few pound. Rest assured that in any event, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

The best form of lease structure is if the freehold interest is owned by the leaseholders. In this scenario the tenants benefit from control and even though a managing agent is often employed where it is larger than a house conversion, the managing agent retained by the leaseholders. Please note that where the lease has no more than eighty years it will affect the value of the property. It is worth checking with your mortgage company that they are happy with residual term of the lease. Leases with less than 80 years remaining means that you will almost definitely have to extend the lease sooner rather than later and it is worth finding out how much this will be. Remember, in most cases you would be be obliged to have owned the property for 24 months in order to be eligible to carry out a lease extension.
