I am intent on selling our home in Mansfield and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Mansfield conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers are using an online conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Mansfield. Having lived in Mansfield for three years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to seek clarification need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm already. Are they able to advise? You need to 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 ailment)

Do you have any advice for leasehold conveyancing in Mansfield from the perspective of expediting the sale process?
- A significant proportion of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Mansfield can be reduced where you appoint lawyers the minute your agents start advertising the property and request that they start to put together the leasehold documentation which will be required by the purchasers’ lawyers. The majority of freeholders or Management Companies in Mansfield charge for supplying management packs for a leasehold premises. You or your lawyers should discover the fee that they propose to charge. The management pack can be applied for on or before finding a buyer, thus reducing delays. The average time it takes to obtain the necessary information is three weeks. It is the most usual reason for frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Mansfield. If you have carried out any alterations to the property would they have required Landlord’s consent? Have you, for example installed wooden flooring? Mansfield leases often stipulate that internal structural changes or addition of wooden flooring require a licence issued by the Landlord consenting to such changes. Should you fail to have the approvals in place you should not communicate with the landlord without checking with your conveyancer before hand. A minority of Mansfield leases require Licence to Assign from the landlord. If this is the case, you should place the estate agents on notice to make sure that the purchasers put in hand financial (bank) and professional references. The bank reference should make it clear that the buyer is able to meet the yearly service charge and the actual amount of the service charge should be quoted in the bank’s letter. You will therefore need to provide your estate agents with the actual amount of the service charge so that they can pass this information on to the buyers or their lawyers.
