At what point can the exchange of contracts happen for domestic conveyancing in Redbridge and do I need to be at the lawyers office?
If you are in close proximity to our conveyancing solicitors in Redbridge you are invited in to sign documents. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we recommend supply a national conveyancing service and give as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The executing of the purchase agreement is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line simply enables the solicitor to officially exchange when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The procedure is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where a lengthy "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Redbridge)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

I had a mortgage agreed in principle with Bank of Ireland. Redbridge conveyancing solicitors are appointed. How long does it take for Bank of Ireland to send the offer to the lawyer?
There is no definitive answer here. Have Bank of Ireland done the survey? Have you advised Bank of Ireland as to your lawyers' details and checked that your lawyers are on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel? It is not unusual for a mortgage offer to take a month to come through.
I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Redbridge is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Redbridge are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Redbridge you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Redbridge may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.

I only have Sixty One years remaining on my flat in Redbridge. I now want to get lease extension but my landlord is missing. What should I do?
If you meet the appropriate requirements, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 you can submit an application to the County Court for an order to dispense with the service of the initial notice. This will enable the lease to be granted an extra 90 years by the Court. You will be obliged to demonstrate that you or your lawyers have made all reasonable attempts to locate the landlord. For most situations a specialist may be useful to carry out a search and prepare an expert document which can be accepted by the court as proof that the landlord is indeed missing. It is advisable to get professional help from a solicitor both on devolving into the landlord’s absence and the application to the County Court overseeing Redbridge.
