At what point will exchange of contracts occur in residential conveyancing in Castleton and am I required to be at the conveyancers office?
If you are round the corner to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Castleton you are welcome to come in to sign documents. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we recommend provide a nationwide conveyancing service and give just as diligent and professional a job for you when communicating with you electronically. The signing of the sale agreement is not the critical part. A signed contract is just a prerequisite for the conveyancer to exchange contracts when the time is right, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where a lengthy "chain" is involved, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Castleton)to be in the office available at the end of the phone to exchange contracts.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a ground for flat up to £305k and found one close by in Castleton I like with amenity areas and railway links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 49 years unexpired on the lease. I can't really find anything else in Castleton for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
If you require a mortgage the remaining unexpired lease term will likely be problematic. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current 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. You can add 90 years to the existing lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.

I have just started marketing my basement apartment in Castleton. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, however I have recently had a yearly maintenance charge demand – Do I pay up?
Your conveyancing lawyer is likely to suggest that you should pay the maintenance contribution as you normally would as all ground rent and maintenance charges will be allotted on completion, so you will be reimbursed by the buyer for the period running from after the completion date to the next payment date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer unless the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. This will smooth the conveyancing process.
