My partner and I may need to let out our Accrington basement flat for a while due to taking a sabbatical. We used a Accrington conveyancing firm in 2004 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any advice as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?
A small minority of properties in Accrington do contain a provision to say that subletting is only allowed with permission. The landlord cannot unreasonably refuse but, in such cases, they would need to review references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.

My financial adviser has suggested using their conveyancer for our conveyancing in Accrington - won’t it be easier to just use them?
This is not necessarily the case and you are entitled to use whichever conveyancing practitioner of your choosing for your Accrington home move. A property lawyer suggested by an estate agent may not always be the best property lawyer, they may suggest their own conveyancing firm who are based remotely. In this instance you may not have contact with your solicitor and due to the lack of continuity in the transaction, it may be difficult to obtain progress reports.
