I have given 2 months notice to my current landlord and must leave my rented property in Balby by the end of next month. Conveyancing for my house purchase is underway. How realistic is it to complete in six weeks as don't want to have to move into short term accommodation?
Generally one should not provide notice on a rental unless your lawyer suggests that you should. Assuming that you have not previously done so, contact to your lawyer and ask them to they seek the assistance the other lawyers, try to a target completion date that everyone will aim to achieve
Do lenders provide you with an approved list of Balby conveyancing solicitors? How do you know who is on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel?

Just bought a detached house in Balby , how long will it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my proprietorship? My Balby conveyancing solicitor has been very slow, so I want to be sure that my ownership is registered.
There is nothing unique about conveyancing in Balby registration formalities. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can adjust subject to the party submitting the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry have to notify any interested parties. At present roughly 80% of submission are completed within 12 days but some can be subject to protracted hold-ups. Historically registration takes place after the new owner is living at the property thus 'speed' is not always primary concern but if there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your conveyancer must communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for the application to be prioritised.
The estate agent has sent us the confirmation of our purchase of a new build apartment in Balby. 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 legal work.
Set out below is a sample of a few leasehold new build enquiries that you should expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Balby

If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? The Vendor must covenant to keep unsold units in good repair until long leases are granted therefore. Please confirm the Lease plans are architect prepared. Please supply a car parking plan.
I am employed by a reputable estate agent office in Balby where we have experienced a number of leasehold sales derailed due to short leases. I have received inconsistent advice from local Balby conveyancing firms. Can you confirm whether the vendor of a flat can commence the lease extension process for the buyer?
Provided that the seller has owned the lease 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 proposed purchaser need not have to sit tight for 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed prior to, or simultaneously with completion of the sale.
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 purchaser.
