We are purchasing our first property. Our property lawyer has texted usto check if we would like to purchase extra conveyancing searches. We are really unsure what's recommended for conveyancing in West Sussex
The extent of West Sussex conveyancing searches should be triggered based entirely on the premises, the location, the possibility of any of these risks, your knowledge of the locality and risks, your general appetite to risk. What matters is that you adequately understand what information each search could supply. You may then make a decision if you consider that you need that information. If in doubt, ask your conveyancing practitioner to provide guidance.
There is lots of here regarding conveyancing in West Sussex but what is your top tip for appointing the right conveyancer in West Sussex
It would be unwise to be seduced by the cheapest West Sussex conveyancing quote. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to property lawyers. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in advance.
I am aiming to move house in April. Should my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the day of completion. Incidentally, can you suggest a removal company in West Sussex. Conveyancing lawyer was organised prior to coming across your website.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to collect the house keys from your selling agent but this can only happen once the previous owners conveyancers inform the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be passed over. After that you should inform the removal company that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not recommend a particular removal organisation but can help you choose a conveyancing in West Sussex or a solicitor that specialises in conveyancing in West Sussex.
About to purchase maisonette in West Sussex. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the RBS conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the West Sussex lawyer is on the RBS conveyancing panel.

Investor purchasers must be able to freely grant unsecured tenancies at market rents without requiring any consents.

Please provide evidence that the form of Lease proposed has been approved by the Land Registry.
I have been on the look out for a leasehold apartment up to £305k and identified one near me in West Sussex I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 52 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in West Sussex suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing proprietor has owned the premises for at least 2 years you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.
