My husband and I are new on the property ladder - agreed a price, yet the property agent advised that the seller will only proceed if we appoint the agent's preferred conveyancers as they need an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Abridge

We suspect that the owner is not behind this ultimatum. If they require ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and explain that (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you are going to appoint your own,trusted Abridge conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will give the negotiator at the agency a commission or hit his conveyancing figures pre-set by head office.

I am hoping to put an offer on a small detached house that seems to meet my requirements, at a reasonable figure which is making it more attractive. I have subsequently been informed that it's a leasehold rather than freehold. I would have thought that there are issues buying a leasehold house in Abridge. Conveyancing lawyers have are soon to be instructed. Will they explain the issues?

Most houses in Abridge are freehold and not leasehold. In this scenario it’s worth having a local solicitor used to dealing with such properties who can assist with the conveyancing process. We note that you are purchasing in Abridge in which case you should be looking for a Abridge conveyancing solicitor and be sure that they are used to transacting on leasehold houses. As a matter of priority you will need to check the unexpired lease term. As a leaseholder you will not be entirely free to do whatever you want to the property. The lease comes with conditions for example requiring the landlord’spermission to carry out changes to the property. It may be necessary to pay a service charge towards the maintenance of the communal areas where the house is part of an estate. Your conveyancer should advise you fully on all the issues.

Notwithstanding our best endeavours, we have been unsuccessful in trying to reach an agreement for a lease extension in Abridge. Can this matter be resolved via the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal?

Most definitely. We are happy to put you in touch with a Abridge conveyancing firm who can help.

An example of a Freehold Enfranchisement case for a Abridge flat is 201 & 201a St. Barnabas Road in October 2013. The Tribunal decided that the price to be paid by the Applicants for the freehold interest is £20,071. This case affected 2 flats. The unexpired lease term was 69.26 years.

Builders have put forward a solicitor and I've obtained a quote from them. They are nearly three hundred pounds cheaper than my own Abridge lawyer. What's the catch?

Builders normally have lists of property lawyers who expedite matters and who know the seller’s contract and lawyer. As many developers offer an incentive to use their approved lawyer for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a developer won't put forward a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they demand an exchange in 28 days. The argument for not agreeing to use the suggested lawyer is that they may prove unwilling to 'push' your interests at the risk of upsetting the sellers. Where you have concerns that this may be the case you should keep with your high street Abridge property lawyer.
