I am aiming to move property in June. Should my conveyancing solicitor call the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you put forward a removal company in Oughtibridge. Conveyancing lawyer was chosen prior to coming across your website.

I'm the only recipient of my late mum's will with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Oughtibridge. The Oughtibridge property was put into my name in March. I now wish to sell up. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders six month 'rule', which means that my proprietorship will be treated the same way as if I'd bought the house in March. Will no one buy the property for half a year?
The CML handbook obliges solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you may be affected by that. Most lenders would take a sensible view as this obligation principally exists to identify subsales or the wholesaling and assigning of property.

I am buying a new build apartment in Oughtibridge. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.
Here is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Oughtibridge
-
Please confirm the Lease plans are surveyor prepared. 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. Will control of the Management Company (if any) be handed over to purchasers on completion of the last sale or earlier? There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore.
What are your top tips when it comes to choosing a Oughtibridge conveyancing firm to deal with our lease extension?
If you are instructing a solicitor for your lease extension (regardless if they are a Oughtibridge conveyancing firm) it is imperative that they be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of conveyancing. We suggest that you make enquires with several firms including non Oughtibridge conveyancing practices before you instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then so much the better. The following questions might be helpful:

If the firm is not ALEP accredited then what is the reason?
I purchased a 1 bedroom flat in Oughtibridge, conveyancing formalities finalised September 2011. How much will my lease extension cost? Equivalent properties in Oughtibridge with an extended lease are worth £222,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 invoiced every year. The lease expires on 21st October 2096
With only 71 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as legals.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of detailed due diligence. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be additional issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action based on this information before getting professional advice.
22 days into buying a property in Oughtibridge. Conveyancing lawyer has told us the title is "Leasehold". Will this likely make a difference on the salability of the house?
Oughtibridge conveyancing does not ordinarily involve leasehold houses. The main factor here is the length of lease and the ground rent. If it's 999 years with a peppercorn rent, it's essentially freehold, so it’s unlikely to affect the marketability too much.
On the flip side, if it's, say, fifty five years it is bound to have a adverse effect on the value, and most likely wouldn't be acceptable to the lender. The remaining lease term and ground rent will be specified in the lease which should be made available to your conveyancer.
