Where you plan to refinance then Barclays will insist on your using a conveyancer on the Barclays conveyancing panel. Here is link to the Land Registry online guidance around what to do when a property owner dies. This will help you to understand the registration process behind changing the details re the registered title. in your case it would appear that you are effectively purchasing the property from the estate.

I have decided to exercise my right to buy my property in Maulden off the council. I have a mortgage offer with Bank of Ireland. Conveyancing is new to me. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?

It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Bank of Ireland, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel.

Planning on purchasing a flat in Maulden. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.

They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Maulden conveyancer is on the Nationwide conveyancing panel.

My wife and I are selling our home in Maulden and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. Any high street Maulden conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using a web based conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Maulden. We have lived in Maulden for 5 years we know of no issue. Should we contact our local Authority to seek confirmation that the buyers are looking for.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. What do they say? 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)

I am looking for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and found one round the corner in Maulden I like with open areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Maulden for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error acquiring a short lease?

Should you need a home loan the shortness of the lease may be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.
