Where the seller is applying pressure to complete it is highly recommended that your lawyer is familiar with the location as they will make use of local contacts and knowledge.

The property agent will wish to be informed of your solicitor's details (be sure the conveyancers are on the bank’s panel). Call up Leeds Building Society or your financial adviser and finalise any appropriate forms. Leeds Building Society will appoint a valuer who will get in touch with the selling agent or vendor to schedule an appointment.

It has been four months since my purchase conveyancing in Boscastle took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £160,000. Why the discrepancy?

The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Boscastle I like with open areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it only has 61 remaining years left on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Boscastle for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a lease with such few years left?

Should you need a mortgage the shortness of the lease will likely be a potential deal breaker. Discount the price by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to start the process of the extension and then assign it to you. You can add 90 years to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should consult your conveyancing solicitor about this matter.

My husband and I have an offer in principle from Nationwide Building Society who said we could borrow up to £218k. When do we need to instruct a solicitor for conveyancing? Boscastle is where we plan to move to.

You can instruct a lawyer now so that the property lawyer can open the ledger so they can commence the ID checks etc. If and when you wish them to start work they will seek a deposit normally approximately £175. That would generally be once you have the loan offer from your lender and valuation report, but if you wish to expedite matters you can get going sooner even though you may be risking some money.
