My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the property agent has warned us that the owners will only go ahead if we instruct their chosen conveyancers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Chesham

We suspect that the owner is unaware of this demand. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated buyer is likely to cause more damage than good. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they understand (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are ready to progress, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to appoint your preferred Chesham conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will earn the estate agent a kickback or meet his conveyancing targets set by corporate headquarters.

My fiance and I may need to rent out our Chesham basement flat temporarily due to a new job. We used a Chesham conveyancing firm in 2004 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any advice as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?

Even though your previous Chesham conveyancing lawyer is no longer around you can check your lease to check if it allows you to sublet the premises. The accepted inference is that if the lease is silent, subletting is permitted. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you need to obtain permission via your landlord or other appropriate person in advance of subletting. The net result is you not allowed to sublet in the absence of first obtaining permission. Such consent is not allowed to be unreasonably turned down. If the lease does not allow you to sublet you will need to ask your landlord for their consent.

I bought a basement flat in Chesham, conveyancing having been completed half a dozen years ago. Can you give me give me an indication of the likely cost of a lease extension? Equivalent properties in Chesham with over 90 years remaining are worth £175,000. The ground rent is £65 invoiced every year. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2081

With 58 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to be between £23,800 and £27,400 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The figure above a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of detailed investigations. You should not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be considered and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.

Should one remove a deceased person's name from the title deeds for a property in Chesham?

Where a Chesham property is jointly owned and one of the proprietors passes away, their name will not immediately be removed from the title deeds. It is not necessary to amend the title as in the event of a sale your conveyancer would just need to evidence as to the reason the co owner is not a party to the contract, usually this is in the form of a grant of probate.

With the aim of making the sale conveyancing more straight forward for the sale of the property you can apply to have the deceased name erased from the title by submitting an application to the land registry with evidence of the death. There is no charge from the Registry for this service.
