We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the loan came with free conveyancing. Is the implication that I have to instruct their panel conveyancer as I would much rather appoint a Yeading based conveyancing firm?
Do check but the chances are that appoint one of their panel solicitors should you accept the "fee-free" deal. Call the mortgage company to ask if they make available a monetary alternative. Some lenders have previously offered a £250 cashback as a further option in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Yeading.
About to purchase a new build flat in Yeading. Conveyancing is daunting at the best of times but I have never purchased a new build flat before. What sort of enquires would be asked in new build conveyancing.
Set out below is a sample of a few leasehold new build questions that you can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Yeading
-
There must be mutual enforceability of lessee’s covenants. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. Please supply a car parking plan.

Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company?
I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and identified one near me in Yeading I like with open areas and station in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 51 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Yeading for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Reduce the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the property for at least 2 years you may request that they start the process of the extension and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this.
