My partner and I are selling our property in Scunthorpe and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using an online conveyancing practice as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Scunthorpe.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything.

I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Scunthorpe. Before I get started I require certainty as to the unexpired term of the lease.

Assuming the lease is registered - and most are in Scunthorpe - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

I acquired a ground floor flat in Scunthorpe, conveyancing formalities finalised in 1997. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Corresponding flats in Scunthorpe with an extended lease are worth £260,000. The ground rent is £45 invoiced annually. The lease finishes on 21st October 2099

With just 74 years unexpired the likely cost is going to span between £8,600 and £9,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs without more comprehensive due diligence. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
