My father pointed out to me me that in purchasing a property in Porthleven there may be a number of restrictions preventing external changes to the property. Is this right?

Part of the conveyancing in Porthleven should determine what restrictions are applicable and advising you as part of a ROT that should be sent to you.
We are aiming to move property in February. Does my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you recommend a removal company in Porthleven. Conveyancing solicitor was organised before I stumbled across your site.

You will need to advise the removal company that you are ready to move in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a specific removal company but can help you choose a residential property solicitor in Porthleven or a solicitor with expertise in conveyancing in Porthleven.
I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Porthleven. I have a mortgage offer with Skipton. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should use one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with Skipton, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the Skipton conveyancing panel.
I have been told that property searches are the number one cause of obstruction in Porthleven conveyancing transactions. Is that correct?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released findings of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not feature amongst the most frequent causes of delays during the legal transfer of property. Local searches are not likely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Porthleven.

Where service of notices and proceedings can be at the property demised please confirm that this can be amended to include simultaneous services at the Lessees’ solicitors’ offices where the Lessee from time to time is not resident in the UK - such solicitors may be varied by notice in writing to the Landlord from time to time but otherwise will be as previously specified. If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. 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.

Frank (my husband) and I may need to rent out our Porthleven 1st floor flat for a while due to a new job. We instructed a Porthleven conveyancing practice in 2002 but they have closed and we did not have the foresight to seek any advice as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?
The lease governs relations between the landlord and you the leaseholder; specifically, it will say if subletting is banned, or permitted but only subject to certain caveats. The rule is that if the lease contains no expres ban or restriction, subletting is permitted. The majority of leases in Porthleven do not contain subletting altogether – such a provision would undoubtedly devalue the flat. In most cases there is a basic requirement that the owner notifies the freeholder, possibly supplying a duplicate of the tenancy agreement.
