I am planning on selling our house in Priorslee and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. A high street Priorslee lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed an online conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Priorslee. Having lived in Priorslee for six years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to seek clarification that there is no issue.

We're novice buyers - agreed a price, yet the selling agent has warned us that the vendor will only go ahead if we appoint the agent's chosen lawyers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local solicitor used to conveyancing in Priorslee

We suspect that the seller is not behind this ultimatum. If they require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a motivated buyer is going to damage their objectives. Avoid the agents and go straight to the owners and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to instruct your own,trusted Priorslee conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will earn their estate agent a introducer fee or achieve conveyancing thresholds demanded by HQ.

I am attracted to a couple of flats in Priorslee which have approximately fifty years remaining on the leases. Should I regard a short lease as a deal breaker?

There are plenty of short leases in Priorslee. The lease is a right to use the property for a period of time. As a lease shortens the saleability of the lease reduces and results in it becoming more expensive to extend the lease. For this reason it is generally wise to increase the term of the lease. It is often difficult to sell a property with a short lease because mortgage companies less inclined to grant a loan on properties of this type. Lease enfranchisement can be a difficult process. We recommend you seek professional help from a solicitor and surveyor with experience in this field.

Priorslee Leasehold Conveyancing - Sample of Queries before buying

    Who is in charge of the block? You will want to find out as much as possible regarding the company managing the building as they can either make life much simpler or much more difficult. As the owner of a leasehold property you are often in the clutches of the managing agents from a financial perspective and when it comes to day to day matters like the cleanliness of the communal areas. You should not be shy to ask other people if they are happy with their management. In conclusion, investigate as to the dates that the service charges are due to the appropriate party and specifically how they are spending the funds. Please note that where the lease has less than eighty years it will have adverse implications on the value of the property. Check with your bank that they are content with remaining years on the lease. Leases with less than 80 years remaining means that you will probably need a lease extension sooner rather than later and you need to have some idea of what this will be. For most Priorsleelease extensions you will need to own the premises for a couple of years in order to be entitled to extend the lease.
