I am due to move house in September. Will my conveyancing solicitor communicate with the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you suggest a removal company in Brighouse. Conveyancing firm was chosen prior to coming across this website.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to collect the house keys from your property agent but this should only occur once the vendors conveyancers inform the agent that they have the completion monies and the keys can be released. You will need to tell the removal men that you are ready to move in. We do not suggest a particular removal organisation but can assist you in locating a conveyancing in Brighouse or a firm that specialises in conveyancing in Brighouse.
We expect to receive a AIP from Skipton this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Skipton recommend any Brighouse solicitors on the Skipton conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Brighouse solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Skipton conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Skipton through the process.
About to purchase apartment in Brighouse. I have received an online quote from a licenced conveyancer, which states: "There will be no charge for dealing with the Lender if you are obtaining a mortgage". I take this to mean that there will be no additional fee if the solicitor is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Brighouse property lawyer is on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel.

Many commercial conveyancing solicitors in Brighouse will conduct a SiteSolutions Highways report as it dramatically cuts the time that conveyancers expend in researching accurate data on highways that impact buildings and development assets in Brighouse. The report provides definitive data on the adoption status of roads, footpaths and verges, as well as the implication of traffic schemes and the rights of way surrounding a commercial development sites in Brighouse.
For every commercial conveyancing transaction in Brighouse it is crucial to investigate the adoption status of roads surrounding a site.

About to purchase a new build apartment in Brighouse. 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 can expect your new-build leasehold conveyancing in Brighouse
-
Has the Lease plan been approved by the Land Registry and if not when will they be lodged for this purpose? Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? Please supply a car parking plan. 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.
I am employed by a reputable estate agency in Brighouse where we see a few leasehold sales jeopardised as a result of leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have been given inconsistent advice from local Brighouse conveyancing firms. Please can you confirm whether the seller of a flat can instigate the lease extension formalities for the purchaser on completion of the sale?
Provided that the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to commence the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer 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 at the same time as completion of the sale.
An alternative approach is to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord 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 buyer.
I purchased a 2 bed flat in Brighouse, conveyancing having been completed 6 years ago. How much will my lease extension cost? Corresponding flats in Brighouse with over 90 years remaining are worth £260,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 per annum. The lease ends on 21st October 2099
With only 75 years left to run the likely cost is going to be between £8,600 and £9,800 plus legals.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive investigations. Do not use the figures in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other issues that need to be considered and clearly you should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
My husband and I are planning to purchase a four bedroom housein Brighouse with a mortgage from a bank. We would like to retain our solicitor in Brighouse however our mortgage company inform us now that he's not on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct one of the our bank panel solicitors or keep our Brighouse conveyancer and pay for one of their panel ones to represent our bank. This seems very unfair; Can we not simply insist that our mortgage company use our Brighouse lawyer?
No, not really. The lender home loan issued is subject to conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender's conveyancing panel. in the past, most mortgage companies had open panels, including most conveyancing solicitors in Brighouse : a mortgagee could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your lender.
