My friend's dad is a solicitor. I expect that I'll be able to get mate’s fee for conveyancing, but if not, what level of figure would I typically be looking at for conveyancing in Twickenham Park?

It is a dozen years since I acquired my house in Twickenham Park. Conveyancing solicitors have recently been retained on the sale but I am unable to find the title documents. Is this a major issue?
You need not be too concerned. First the deeds may be with your lender or they could be in the possession of the conveyancers who acted in your purchase. Secondly in all probability the title will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors acquiring up to date copy of the land registers. Most conveyancing in Twickenham Park involves registered property but in the rare situation where your property is unregistered it is more tricky but is resolvable.

My wife and I have organised a further advance on our mortgage from Santander as we want to conduct a loft conversion to our home in Twickenham Park. Do we need to select a local Twickenham Park solicitor on the Santander conveyancing panel to handle the paperwork?

I have been told that property searches are a common cause of stalling in Twickenham Park house deals. Is there any truth in this?
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) published findings of a review by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure within the common causes of hindrances during the legal transfer of property. Local searches are not likely to be the root cause of holding up conveyancing in Twickenham Park.
I am looking for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one near me in Twickenham Park I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 49 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Twickenham Park suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage the shortness of the lease may be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current owner has owned the property for at least twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
