The Cheslyn Hay conveyancing firm that I recently instructed on my purchase in Cheslyn Hay have suddenly shut down. They were on acting for me because I needed a solicitor on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel and my previous Cheslyn Hay lawyer was not. I issued them a cheque for two hundred pounds in advance. What are my options?
Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then inform them straight away so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors may be able to help.

How does conveyancing in Cheslyn Hay differ for newly converted properties?
Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Cheslyn Hay approach us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the premises is constructed. This is because new home sellers in Cheslyn Hay typically buy the land, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in Cheslyn Hay or who has acted in the same development.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £245,000 and identified one round the corner in Cheslyn Hay I like with a park and transport links nearby, the downside is that it's only got 61 remaining years left on the lease. There is not much else in Cheslyn Hay for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a lease with such few years left?
Should you require a mortgage that many years will likely be an issue. Discount the price by the expected lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the existing owner has owned the property for a minimum of 2 years you may ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer regarding this.
