After the abolition of Home Packs, energy performance certificates was left as a mandatory element of moving house. An EPC must be commissioned before the property is placed on the market.

I have instructed a Whalley solicitor having made sure that they are on the RBS conveyancing panel. Does my lawyer arrange the survey of the property?
RBS will need an independent valuation of the property. Your lawyer will not arrange this. Usually RBS will appoint their own surveyor to do this, and you will have to pay for it. Remember that this is a valuation for mortgage purposes and not a survey. You may wish to consider appointing your own Whalley surveyor to carry out a survey or prepare a home buyers report on the property. It is up to you to satisfy yourself that the property is structurally sound before you buy it. If the survey or report reveals that building work is needed, you should tell your solicitor. You may wish to renegotiate with the seller.
I purchased my house on 9 August and my personal details is not yet on the land registry website. Any reason for this? My conveyancing solicitor in Whalley said it should be dealt with in a couple of weeks. Are titles in Whalley uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Whalley is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can differ depending on the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any third parties. At present roughly three quarters of submission are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be longer delays. Historically registration occurs after the purchaser has moved in to the premises so an expedited registration is not usually primary concern yet if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your solicitor can speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
I am looking for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one near me in Whalley I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 49 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Whalley suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error purchasing a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you can ask them to start the process of the extension and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this matter.
I am on look out for some leasehold conveyancing in Whalley. Before diving in I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Whalley - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars 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.

You should not move forward based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
