I require conveyancing for a flat in a relatively new development (five years old) in Upney. 95% of the appartments are already sold. Do I need carry out the local searches as part of conveyancing in Upney?
Conveyancing Searches are a critical link in the Upney conveyancing process. There are a large number of search providers who offer Upney conveyancing searches, as well straight from the local authority. These are generally termed personal search companies and they produce, not surprisingly, personal searches. However, all Local Authority Search conveyancing products have one thing in common - they must obtain their data from the local authority.
At what point will exchange of contracts take place for domestic conveyancing in Upney and do I need to be at the solicitors branch?
Where you are local to our conveyancing solicitors in Upney you are invited in to sign documents. However, the lender approved solicitors we recommend offer a countrywide conveyancing service and give just as comprehensive and professional a job for you when communicating with you by post or email. The executing of the contract is not the point of no return. Signing on the dotted line is just a prerequisite for the firm to address the formalities at the suitable time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Upney)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Upney. Before I get started I would like to find out the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in Upney - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details 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 am the leaseholder of a second floor flat in Upney. Given that I can not reach agreement with the freeholder, can the Leasehold valuation Tribunal make a decision on the premium due for a lease extension?
if there is a missing landlord or if there is disagreement about what the lease extension should cost, under the Leasehold Reform, Housing and Urban Development Act 1993 it is possible to make an application to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal to calculate the premium.
An example of a Lease Extension case for a Upney residence is 49 Aldborough Road South in July 2012. The Tribunal decided that the premium payable for the grant of the new lease was £13,925 This case was in relation to 1 flat. The unexpired residue of the current lease was 61.36 years.
