I am acquiring a property for cash in Borrowash. I have resided for the last 15 years in Borrowash. Conveyancing searches are expensive. Given that I know the road and vicinity very well must I have all the conveyancing searches?

If you not getting a home loan, then the vast majority of the Borrowash conveyancing searches are non-obligatory. Your conveyancer will ’encourage you, no-doubt strongly, that you should have searches completed, but he is duty bound to do this. One thing to take into account; if you are going to dispose of the house in the future, it will be of interest to your future purchaser what the searches reveal. Sometimes premises with day to day issues can still throw up unfavourable search results. A competent conveyancing solicitor in Borrowash will be able to give you some sensible advice here.

My flat in Borrowash is up for sale and I have a buyer. Does my conveyancing practitioner have to be on the Nottingham conveyancing panel in order to deal with redeeming my mortgage?

Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Nottingham conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale. It might be that the lender will not release the original deeds (if applicable and increasingly irrelevant) until after the mortgage is paid off. You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their requirements fairly frequently in recent years.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one round the corner in Borrowash I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, however it only has 51 years on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Borrowash for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake purchasing a lease with such few years left?

Should you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will be problematic. Discount the offer by the expected lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of twenty four months you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the existing lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing lawyer regarding this matter.

My wife and I purchased a leasehold house in Borrowash. Conveyancing and Aldermore mortgage are in place. I have received a letter from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. Attached was a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1996. The conveyancing solicitor in Borrowash who previously acted has now retired. Any advice?

First contact the Land Registry to make sure that the individual claiming to own the freehold is in fact the registered owner of the freehold reversion. You do not need to instruct a Borrowash conveyancing lawyer to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for a few pound. Rest assured that in any event, even if this is the rightful landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.

I own a 1 bedroom flat in Borrowash, conveyancing having been completed 3 years ago. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Comparable properties in Borrowash with over 90 years remaining are worth £211,000. The ground rent is £45 charged once a year. The lease terminates on 21st October 2090

With just 67 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £10,500 and £12,000 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure without more comprehensive investigations. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you take any other action based on this information without first getting professional advice.

I am considering choosing an online solicitor rather than a Borrowash conveyancing practice. Should I ‘stay local’?

Advantages do exist in being able to attend a local Borrowash conveyancing solicitor such as

  • signing papers same day
  • getting face-to-face explanations of issues you don't understand
  • the ability to raise concerns if matters go pear-shaped

When analysing fees, look carefully for hidden extras. The majority decent Borrowash high street solicitors give an all-inclusive price. Often online agents appear to offer discounted prices, but have burried 'extras' in the small print.
