Just contacted my conveyancing solicitor in Normanton who completed the legal work 18 months ago requesting a conveyancing costs illustration based on an identical type of house move (a leasehold property and a freehold premises) of similar values with a home loan from Lloyds TSB Bank. It looks as though am now being charged double. Better the devil I know or should I seek out an alternative firm of conveyancing solicitor?
The estimate does seem a tad on the high side. Where you are happy to expend time comparing quotes you could get the conveyancing a bit cheaper by perhaps £100 plus VAT. That being said, if you were content with the service the firm provided you couldcome to regret choosing an a cheaper conveyancer. Remember to ensure the firm can act for Lloyds TSB Bank.

The survey should have identified any problems with the structure of the property. Assuming a detailed survey was carried out and the issues were not identified, you may have a claim against the surveyor. However, if you did not have a full survey, you may be responsible for fixing any defects that have now been noted. We would always encourage buyers to take every possible step to ensure they are completely aware of the condition of a property before purchase regardless of whether they are buying in Normanton.
I have recentlyfound out that Wolstenholmes have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Normanton for a purchase of a freehold house 18 months ago. How can I establish that my home is in my name in the name of the previous owner?

Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared.

If the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Normanton - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
