Having read lots of house buying guides, I note that they all recommend that you should get your house surveyed prior to buying it. When I asked my local North Walsham solicitor - who is on the HSBC conveyancing panel - on this she said they don't do this and I need to contract an independent surveyor. is that correct?

HSBC will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually HSBC will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own North Walsham surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in North Walsham I like with amenity areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in North Walsham in this price bracket, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?

Should you need a mortgage that many years will be an issue. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may request that they commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this matter.

Should one as executor remove a departed person's details from the title register for a property in North Walsham?

With the aim of making things smoother in the future you may apply to have the deceased person removed from the title entries by submitting an application to HM Land Registry with evidence of the death. There is no charge from the Registry for this service.
