My partner and I are intent on selling our house in Rawdon and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any high street Rawdon lawyer would know that there is no such problem. It does beg the question why the buyers used an online conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Rawdon. We have lived in Rawdon for 4 years we know that this is a non issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm already. What do they say? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)

I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and identified one round the corner in Rawdon I like with amenity areas and station nearby, the downside is that it only has 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Rawdon for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?

If you need a home loan the shortness of the lease will likely be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer about this.
