I am in the throes of porting my existing standard home loan to a BTL Skipton Building Society mortgage. The bank has said that I must appoint a solicitor for this. I got in contact with the same North Cave conveyancing practitioner who who conducted the conveyancing when I first acquired the premises. The quote supplied of £550 is an eye-watering amount to do this as its a remortgage than a sale or purchase.
The estimate does seem a little overpriced. If you you were to look around you could reduce the fees marginally by perhaps £125. That being said, providing that you were happy with the conveyancing the firm offered you maylive to regret opting for an a cheaper lawyer.

Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and identified one close by in North Cave I like with amenity areas and station nearby, however it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in North Cave suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be an issue. Reduce the price by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
