We are close to exchanging contracts on the sale of our home in Newquay and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed land that was not decontaminated. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers used a national conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Newquay. We have lived in Newquay for six years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to obtain 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 must 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 illness)

I'm purchasing my first flat in Newquay with a mortgage from Clydesdale. The sellers would not budge the amount so I negotiated £7000 of fixtures and fittings instead. The sale representative advised me not disclose to my conveyancer about the side-deal as it may affect my loan with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.

Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.

If all goes to plan we aim to complete the sale of our £275,000 maisonette in Newquay in 8 days. The freeholder has quoted £384 for Landlord’s certificate, insurance certificate and 3 years statements of service charge. Is the landlord entitled to charge an administration fee for a flat conveyance in Newquay?

Newquay conveyancing on leasehold maisonettes usually necessitates the purchaser’s solicitor submitting enquiries for the landlord to address. Although the landlord is under no legal obligation to address such questions most will be content to do so. They are at liberty to invoice a reasonable administration fee for responding to enquiries or supplying documentation. There is no upper cap for such fees. The average fee for the paperwork that you are referring to is over three hundred pounds, in some cases it is in excess of £800. The management information fee required by the landlord must be accompanied by a summary of rights and obligations in respect of administration fees, without which the charge is technically not due. Reality however dictates that you have no choice but to pay whatever is demanded should you wish to sell the property.

You have 54 years left to run we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £32,300 and £37,400 plus legals.

The figure above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to provide a more accurate figure without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other concerns that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action based on this information without first getting professional advice.

I'm remortgaging a apartment in Newquay. I can find my conveyancer's company on the Law Society's list, but I can't see my conveyancer's name on the list. Is this a big problem?

Not all staff in the company must be listed by the regulator. As long there is a manager qualified to 'oversee' the transaction, the actual day-to-day activity can be conducted by unlicensed staff.
