The owners of the property we are purchasing hired a conveyancing firm in Moston who has recommended a exclusivity agreement with a deposit 10k. Are such agreements sensible?
Exclusivity agreements are agreements between a property seller and prospective buyer granting the buyer the sole right to the sale of the premises for a certain period of time. For all intents and purposes, a lock out agreement is a contract specifying that you should be issued with a contract at a later time being the main conveyancing contract. It tends to be utilised for buyer confidence though in some cases, the proprietor may stand to benefit from such agreements as well. There are various pros and cons to having them but you should to check with your conveyancer but beware that it may result in costing you more in conveyancing charges. In light of this these agreements are not popular in relation to conveyancing in Moston.
It is is a decade since I bought my home in Moston. Conveyancing solicitors have now been retained on the sale but I can't locate the deeds. Will this cause complications?
Don’t worry too much. First there is a chance that the deeds will be with the mortgage company or they could be in the possession of the lawyers who acted in your purchase. Secondly the chances are that the title will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to prove you own the property by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring current official copies of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Moston relates to registered property but in the rare situation where your home is not registered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.
I got the keys to my house on 1 May and the transaction details are still not on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Moston expressed confidence that it will be dealt with inside ten days. Are titles in Moston uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Moston registration is no quicker or slower than anywhere else in the country. Rather than based on location, timescales can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry have to notify any 3rd parties. At present roughly three quarters of such applications are fully dealt with in less than three weeks but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Historically registration takes place after the buyer has moved in to the premises therefore an expedited registration is not always primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers could contact the land registry and explain the circumstances.

I purchased a 1 bedroom flat in Moston, conveyancing having been completed 5 years ago. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding properties in Moston with an extended lease are worth £265,000. The ground rent is £50 invoiced annually. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2102
With 76 years unexpired the likely cost is going to be between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive due diligence.

Neither should you move forward based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
