My fiance and I may need to let out our Thorne garden flat temporarily due to taking a sabbatical. We used a Thorne conveyancing firm in 2004 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to seek any guidance as to whether the lease permits subletting. How do we find out?

Some leases for properties in Thorne do contain a provision to say that subletting is only permitted with prior consent from the landlord. The landlord cannot unreasonably withhold but, in such cases, they would need to review references. Experience dictates that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.

I purchased a 2 bed flat in Thorne, conveyancing having been completed half a dozen years ago. How much will my lease extension cost? Equivalent properties in Thorne with an extended lease are worth £190,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £45 charged once a year. The lease runs out on 21st October 2087

With only 62 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £17,100 and £19,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.

Developers have recommended to me a solicitor and I've sought an estimate from them. It's nearly £400 less expensive than my own Thorne conveyancer. Should I use them?

Housebuilders often have lists of conveyancing practitioners who expedite matters and who know the builder's documentation and conveyancing practitioner. As many developers offer an incentive to choose their approved solicitor for this reason, any increased fees can be avoided and a developer won't recommend a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the transaction delayed when they want exchange within a tight deadline. A counter-argument for not agreeing to use the recommended lawyer is that they may prove reluctant to fight for your interests for fear of alienating the housebuilder. Where you have concerns that this may be the situation you should stick with your local Thorne conveyancing practitioner.
