My wife and I are planning on selling our house in Porthleven and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. Any local lawyer would know this is not the case. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers are using an online conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Porthleven. We have lived in Porthleven for three years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You must check with your lawyer before you do anything.

What makes your site different to alternative online quote calculators when it comes to conveyancing in Porthleven?

At this site receive a fixed fee quote from a Solicitor or Licensed Conveyancer that understands the issues for your conveyancing in Porthleven. As opposed to estate agents and many comparison sites we do not have kick-back deals with solicitors. A large number of agents and online brokers 'recommend' the firm who pay the most per referral, as opposed to the best value conveyancing in Porthleven

My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent has warned us that the owners will only move forward if we use their preferred conveyancers as they want an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a family solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Porthleven

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this requirement. If they want ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated buyer is counter productive. Try to communicate with the sellers directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you are going to instruct your own,trusted Porthleven conveyancing solicitors - rather thanthose that will give their estate agent a referral fee or achieve conveyancing targets demanded by HQ.

We own a leasehold flat in Porthleven. Conveyancing was finalised in 21012. I have read on numerous consumer forums that I should not let the the remaining lease term to get too short. Why is that a problem?

Porthleven domestic long term leases are for a fixed period - usually ninety nine years when they started. However a significant flats in Porthleven were built or converted 25 or more years ago and so these leases now have under 80 years remaining. This may seem like plenty of time but Banks, Building Societies and other mortgage lenders on the whole require leases to have a minimum of 75 years unexpired to be mortgageable. Accordingly when you come to sell the property you will need to extend the term of your lease if you are getting close to 75 years. To enhance the saleability of your property you should be considering whether or not to extend your lease well in advance of selling the property. Furthermore significant benefits to taking action before the lease reaches even 80 years as when the lease falls below 80 years the premium to be paid to extend starts to escalate.
