It has come to my attention via my IFA that my Bredbury lawyer is not on the lender Solicitor panel. How can I be certain that this is indeed the case?

Can your site be used to find a Conveyancing solicitor in Bredbury even where I’m not buying or selling a house, for instance if I wish to buy a shop in Bredbury with a mortgage from Leeds Building Society?

Our search tool is mainly there to select domestic conveyancing solicitors in Bredbury but we have set out at the bottom of this page some Bredbury commercial conveyancing firms. You should enquire with the solicitors directly to see if they are also authorised to represent Leeds Building Society

I have been told that property searches are the number one cause of delay in Bredbury conveyancing transactions. Is there any truth in this?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) released findings of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the top 10 causes of delays in the conveyancing process. Local searches are unlikely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Bredbury.

How does conveyancing in Bredbury differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build premises in Bredbury approach us having been asked by the housebuilder to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is built. This is because developers in Bredbury typically purchase the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Bredbury or who has acted in the same development.

I own a leasehold house in Bredbury. Conveyancing and Lloyds TSB Bank mortgage organised. A letter has just been received from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. Attached was a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1994. The conveyancing solicitor in Bredbury who previously acted has long since retired. Any advice?

The first thing you should do is make enquiries of the Land Registry to make sure that the individual claiming to own the freehold is indeed the registered owner of the freehold reversion. It is not necessary to instruct a Bredbury conveyancing practitioner to do this as it can be done on-line for less than a fiver. You should note that in any event, even if this is the rightful landlord, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

I acquired a 2 bed flat in Bredbury, conveyancing formalities finalised 9 years ago. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Corresponding properties in Bredbury with over 90 years remaining are worth £171,000. The ground rent is £50 levied per year. The lease ends on 21st October 2102

With 79 years left to run the likely cost is going to span between £8,600 and £9,800 plus plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to supply the actual costs without more comprehensive investigations. Do not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt additional concerns that need to be taken into account and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not move forward based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
