I have given 2 months notice to my current landlord and must leave my let out apartment in Yeading by the end of next month. Conveyancing for my house purchase is underway. Is it possible to complete in 4 weeks as don't want to have to move into short term accommodation?
The normal practice is not to provide notice for your letting until you have exchanged. Assuming that you have not already done so, speak to your solicitor and request that they chase the owners solicitors, try to get a realistic time scale from them that all parties will look to achieve

My wife and I purchasing a 4 bedroom semi-detached house in Yeading. We would like to an extension at the rear at the house.Will legal investigations on the property involve investigations to determine if these works are allowed?
Your solicitor will review the registered title as conveyancing in Yeading can on occasion reveal restrictions in the title documents which restrict categories of works or require the permission of another owner. Some extensions require local authority planning permissions and approval under the building regulations. Some areas are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which often prevent or impact extensions. It would be prudent to check these things with a surveyor ahead of any purchase.
When it comes to mortgage companies such as Virgin Money, do Yeading solicitors incur a yearly amount to be on the conveyancing panel?
We are unaware of any bank fees to register on their list of approved firms, although some do charge an administration charge to deal with the processing of the conveyancing panel application.
I currently have a mortgage with Nottingham for my property in Yeading. Conveyancing was finalised some time ago. Should I wish to rent out the flat and do not currently have a buy-to-let mortgage do I need to remortgage to a buy-to-let mortgage or inform Nottingham?
You must advise Nottingham in advance of letting out your property as this is likely to be a breach of Nottingham’s mortgage conditions. It may be that Nottingham will permit you to let out your former home without needing to switch to a buy-to-let mortgage but some lenders will add a surcharge to your mortgage rate to reflect the higher risk. You should contact Nottingham directly. You need not do this via a Nottingham conveyancing panel lawyer.

I work for a reputable estate agency in Yeading where we have witnessed a number of flat sales derailed as a result of short leases. I have been given conflicting advice from local Yeading conveyancing solicitors. Could you clarify whether the owner of a flat can start the lease extension process for the purchaser on completion of the sale?
As long as the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to kick-start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer need not have to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done prior to, or at the same time as completion of the disposal of the property.
Alternatively, it may be possible to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the buyer.
I have attempted and failed to negotiate with my landlord to extend my lease without success. Can the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal decide on such issues? Can you recommend a Yeading conveyancing firm to assist?
Where there is a missing landlord or if there is dispute about what the lease extension should cost, under the relevant statutes you can apply to the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal to make a decision on the premium.
An example of a lease Extension case for a Yeading premises is 25 Beechwood Avenue in November 2012. the Tribunal accordingly determined that the premium for the lease extension should be £24,353. This case related to 1 flat. The remaining number of years on the lease was 58.19 years.
