I am getting closer to an exchange on a house in Upton and my parents have sent the exchange deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now advised that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my lawyer needs to make a notification to my lender. I am advised that, in also acting for the bank he must advise them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I disclosed to the bank concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for him to raise this?
The lawyer is obliged to clarify with lender to make sure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. The solicitor can only report this to your lender if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
When does exchange of contracts occur in residential conveyancing in Upton and do I need to be at the solicitors branch?
Where you are near to our conveyancing solicitors in Upton you are welcome to come in to sign contracts. That being said, the firms we recommend offer countrywide coverage for conveyancing and provide as equally detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The executing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one round the corner in Upton I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, however it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Upton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
If you need a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be an issue. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you may ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease term and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.
I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Upton. Before I set the wheels in motion I want to be sure as to the remaining lease term.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Upton - 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 have had difficulty in trying to reach an agreement for a lease extension in Upton. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal adjudicate on premiums?
Most definitely. We can put you in touch with a Upton conveyancing firm who can help.
An example of a Lease Extension case for a Upton property is Various @ Colombus Square in January 2012. the Tribunal calculated the premiums to be paid for new leases for each of the flats in Mariners Walk to be £3822 and the premium to be paid for the new lease of 2 Knights Court to be £4439. This case related to 13 flats. The unexpired residue of the current lease was 76 years.
