My flat in Mitcheldean is up for sale and I have accepted an offer. Does the property lawyer need to be on the RBS conveyancing panel in order to deal with the discharge of my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the RBS conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their requirements fairly frequently at the moment.

I'm the single beneficiary of my late mum's will and I have everything in my name alone, including the house in Mitcheldean. The Mitcheldean property was put into my name in March. I want to move. I do know about the Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', meaning my proprietorship may be considered the same way as though I had purchased the house in March. Will no one buy the property for half a year?

The CML handbook obliges solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you might be impacted by that. many lenders would take a sensible view as this obligation is primarily there to pick up on the purchase and immediately sell or the wholesaling and assigning of properties.

I have just appointed agents to market my 2 bed flat in Mitcheldean. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, however I have recently received a yearly maintenance charge invoice – Do I pay up?

Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should pay the maintenance contribution as you normally would given that all rents and service invoices will be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.

I invested in buying a split level flat in Mitcheldean, conveyancing having been completed August 1995. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Equivalent properties in Mitcheldean with over 90 years remaining are worth £195,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 levied per year. The lease ends on 21st October 2089

With only 63 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £16,200 and £18,600 plus legals.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of comprehensive investigations. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be additional issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action based on this information without first getting professional advice.
