We are a couple about to exchange contracts for a semi detached house in Camelford. We encountered a problem. Our loan offer with TSB expires on 3/2/2026 but the sellers are suggesting a completion date of 5/2/2026. Can one prolong the mortgage offer?

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a house I have offered on two weeks back in what was supposed to be a simple, no chain conveyancing. Camelford is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Camelford are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Camelford you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Camelford may ascertain that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the estate agent told us that the vendor will only go ahead if we appoint the agent's chosen conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street solicitor used to conveyancing in Camelford
We suspect that the seller is not behind this demand. If they desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a serious buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)but you will continue to use your own,trusted Camelford conveyancing firm - as opposed tothe ones that will give their negotiator at the agency a kickback or achieve conveyancing targets set by head office.
I am a negotiator for a busy estate agent office in Camelford where we see a few flat sales jeopardised as a result of leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received conflicting advice from local Camelford conveyancing solicitors. Could you shed some light as to whether the owner of a flat can instigate 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 start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. The benefit of this is that the buyer need not have to wait 2 years to extend their lease. 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 disposal of the property.
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.
I acquired a split level flat in Camelford, conveyancing was carried out April 1997. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Comparable flats in Camelford with an extended lease are worth £191,000. The ground rent is £55 levied per year. The lease expires on 21st October 2079
You have 54 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £32,300 and £37,400 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.
The suggested premium range above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more comprehensive investigations. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other issues that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward placing reliance on this information without first getting professional advice.
