five months have elapsed following my purchase conveyancing in Northop Hall concluded. I have checked the Land Registry website which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £170,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, chain free conveyancing. Northop Hall is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Northop Hall are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Northop Hall you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Northop Hall may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.

I acquired a 2 bed flat in Northop Hall, conveyancing was carried out November 2012. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Equivalent properties in Northop Hall with an extended lease are worth £186,000. The ground rent is £55 invoiced every year. The lease ends on 21st October 2078
With only 52 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to span between £29,500 and £34,000 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings.

One could suggest that there exists a distinct benefit in opting for a conveyancing practitioner nearby to the property you are purchasing, due to the in-depth knowledge of the region and potential local issues - but this is debatable. The majority of conveyancers conduct their work over the web and could be anywhere in the world.
