Lock out agreements are contracts binding a home owner and prospective acquirer giving the buyer the sole right to the sale of the premises within a prescribed time frame.

How does conveyancing in Yeadon differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Yeadon come to us having been asked by the builder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is completed. This is because house builders in Yeadon tend to acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Yeadon or who has acted in the same development.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Yeadon. Before I set the wheels in motion I want to be sure as to the unexpired term of the lease.

Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and almost all are in Yeadon - 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.

I am the registered owner of a studio flat in Yeadon, conveyancing was carried out July 1998. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Equivalent flats in Yeadon with a long lease are worth £185,000. The ground rent is £65 invoiced every year. The lease ends on 21st October 2086

With only 61 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to range between £19,000 and £22,000 plus professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to advice on the actual costs in the absence of comprehensive due diligence. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward based on this information before getting professional advice.

I am hoping to buy a repossessed flat in Yeadon and the bank selling would like to complete within a month. Can a lawyer meet that timeframe? Am I best advised to instruct a high street Yeadon firm or an online company that professes to offer speedy conveyancing?
