Me and my partner are soon to complete buying a property in West Cross but as a result of wreckage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate reparation from the seller in the sum of three thousand pounds taking the form of a deduction in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of a side agreement however Yorkshire BS will not permit this. Should they have been approached?
The conveyancer that is on a Yorkshire BS conveyancing panel is duty bound to disclose to Yorkshire BS of any changes to the sale price.

My partner and I are planning on selling our house in West Cross and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was 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 buyers instructed a nationwide conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in West Cross. We have lived in West Cross for three years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to contact our local Authority to obtain clarification need.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same ailment)
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £195,000 and identified one close by in West Cross I like with open areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in West Cross for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?
If you need a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Discount the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you could request that they start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer about this.
