It is a dozen years since I purchased my property in Chadderton. Conveyancing lawyers have now been retained on the sale but I can't locate the deeds. Is this a major issue?
You need not be too concerned. Firstly the deeds may be kept by the lender or they may still be with the conveyancers who handled the purchase. Secondly in all probability the title will be registered at the land registry and you will be able to prove you are the registered owner by your conveyancing solicitors procuring up to date copy of the land registers. Almost all conveyancing in Chadderton involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your home is unregistered it adds to the complexity but is resolvable.
We are intent on selling our property in Chadderton and according to the buyers it appears that there is a possibility that the property was built on contaminated land. A high street Chadderton lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers instructed a nationwide conveyancing outfit rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Chadderton. We have lived in Chadderton for six years we know that this is a non issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get clarification that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing firm already. Are they able to advise? You should enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same sickness)

I am hoping to put an offer on a small detached house that seems to meet my requirements, at a great price which is making it all the more appealing. I have since been informed that it's a leasehold as opposed to freehold. I am assuming that there are issues buying a house with a leasehold title in Chadderton. Conveyancing advisers have are soon to be appointed. Will my lawyers set out the implications of buying a leasehold house in Chadderton ?
Most houses in Chadderton are freehold and not leasehold. This is one of the situations where having a local solicitor who is familiar with the area who can assist with the conveyancing process. We note that you are buying in Chadderton so you should seriously consider shopping around for a Chadderton conveyancing practitioner and be sure that they have experience in dealing with leasehold houses. As a matter of priority you will need to check the number of years remaining. As a tenant you will not be at liberty to do whatever you want to the property. The lease comes with conditions for example requiring the landlord’sconsent to conduct changes to the property. You may also be required to pay a contribution towards the upkeep of the communal areas where the house is located on an estate. Your conveyancer should advise you fully on all the issues.
I purchased a ground floor flat in Chadderton, conveyancing formalities finalised in 2004. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Equivalent properties in Chadderton with over 90 years remaining are worth £222,000. The ground rent is £50 invoiced annually. The lease expires on 21st October 2095
With only 70 years unexpired we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £9,500 and £11,000 as well as professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. Do not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously want to 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.
