I am being advised by my solicitor that absentee landlord insurance is required on my purchase. What is the typical level of cover needed for conveyancing in Lytham St Annes?
The right level of absentee landlord indemnity insurance depends on who your lender is. It would differ for example between Accord Mortgages Ltd and Norwich and Peterborough Building Society. Conveyancing practitioners as opposed to members of the public take out such insurances.
I was told three weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Skipton. Is it usual for Skipton to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Lytham St Annes is approved on their conveyancing panel? Skipton have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
Mortgage companies tend not to not issue an offer until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Skipton to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Skipton conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.
The deeds to our home can not be found. The lawyers who conducted the conveyancing in Lytham St Annes 5 years ago are no longer around. What do I do?
Assuming the title is registered the information relating to your proprietorship will be documented by HMLR with a Title Number. It is possible to carry out a search at the Land Registry, identify your property and get up to date copies of the Registered Entries for less than a fiver. If the property is Leasehold then the Land Registry will in most cases retain a certified duplicate of the Registered Lease and again, a copy can be obtained for twenty pounds.

We own a leasehold flat in Lytham St Annes. Conveyancing was completed in five years ago. I have read on numerous advice forums that I mustn’t allow the the remaining lease term to get too low. Is this right?
Lytham St Annes leasehold properties are for a fixed term - often ninety nine years when they commenced. However a significant appartments in Lytham St Annes were built or converted 20 or more years ago and so these leases now have less than eighty years remaining. This may sound like plenty of time but Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage companies on the whole need leases to have a minimum of seventy five years left to be mortgageable. This means that when you come to sell the property you will need a lease extension if you are getting close to eighty years. To increase the saleability of your property you should be considering whether to extend your lease well in advance of selling the property. You should note that there are strong financial reasons to taking action before the lease reaches even eighty years as when the lease falls below 80 years the premium to be paid to extend starts to increase.
