It is is a decade since I purchased my property in Maltby. Conveyancing lawyers have recently been retained on the sale but I am unable to track down my deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly the deeds may be with your mortgage company or they may still be with the lawyers who oversaw the purchase. Secondly the likelihood is that the land will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers obtaining current official copies of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Maltby involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is not registered it is more tricky but is not insurmountable.

I am planning to move home in January. Should my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you suggest a removal company in Maltby. Conveyancing solicitor was found before I stumbled across your site.

On the day of completion you will need to pick up the keys from your estate agent but this can only occur after the sellers lawyers inform the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be given over. You can tell the removal company that you are ready to move in. We do not suggest a specific removal organisation but can help you choose a conveyancing in Maltby or a lawyer that specialises in conveyancing in Maltby.

I'm the only recipient of my late grandmother’s estate and I have everything in my name alone, including the my former home in Maltby. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in October. I plan to dispose of the property. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be treated the same way as if I'd bought the property in October. Is the property unsalable for six months?

The CML handbook instructs solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." Technically you could be caught by that. How practical a view lenders take of it, depend on the bank as this requirement is chiefly there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the flipping of property.

is it true that all Maltby solicitor firms on the Principality conveyancing panel are governed by the Solicitors Regulatory Authority?

As a firm of solicitors, in order to be on the Principality conveyancing panel they would need to be regulated by the SRA. The majority of banks do allow licenced conveyancers on their panel in which case such practice would be governed by the CLC.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Maltby I like with a park and transport links nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Maltby suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

If you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor regarding this matter.

Whether you are looking to buy or sell a shop, pub, restaurant, office, retail premises or a complete business we will find you the right solicitor.

My wife and I purchased a leasehold flat in Maltby. Conveyancing and Santander mortgage went though with no issue. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. It included a demand for arrears of ground rent dating back to 1997. The conveyancing practitioner in Maltby who previously acted has long since retired. What should I do?

The first thing you should do is make enquiries of the Land Registry to make sure that the individual claiming to own the freehold is in fact the registered owner of the freehold reversion. It is not necessary to incur the fees of a Maltby conveyancing lawyer to do this as it can be done on-line for less than a fiver. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

I own a basement flat in Maltby, conveyancing was carried out March 2011. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Equivalent flats in Maltby with an extended lease are worth £176,000. The ground rent is £50 invoiced every year. The lease expires on 21st October 2105

With 80 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £7,600 and £8,800 as well as professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first getting professional advice.
