I am looking to buy a house and need a conveyancing solicitor in Clitheroe who is on the Bank of Ireland solicitor. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a firm?
Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for Bank of Ireland in certain locations such as Clitheroe. We dont recommend any particular firm.
A relative advised me that in purchasing a property in Clitheroe there may be various restrictions prohibiting external alterations to a property. Is this right?
There are anumerous of properties in Clitheroe which have some sort of restriction or requirement of consent to carry out external changes. Part of the conveyancing in Clitheroe should determine what restrictions are applicable and advising you as part of a ROT that should be sent to you.
I'm the sole recipient of my late father’s estate with all property in now in my sole name, including the house in Clitheroe. Conveyancing formalities meant that the Land Registry date was in October. I want to move. I understand that there is a Mortgage Lenders 6 month 'rule', meaning my property ownership will be treated the same way as though I had purchased the property in October. Do I have to wait 6 months to sell?
The CML handbook requires solicitors to: "report to us immediately if the owner or registered proprietor has been registered for less than six months." By the strict wording you could be caught by that. How practical a view lenders take of it, depend on the bank as this requirement chiefly exists to capture subsales or the flipping of properties.
My wife and I have organised a further advance on our mortgage from Bank of Ireland as we wish to carry out renovations to our property in Clitheroe. Do we need to select a local Clitheroe solicitor on the Bank of Ireland conveyancing panel to handle the legals?
Bank of Ireland don't usually appoint a member of their conveyancing panel to handle such a matter. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the Bank of Ireland panel.
It has been 2 months since my purchase conveyancing in Clitheroe took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £175,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the residence from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

I am looking at a two maisonettes in Clitheroe both have approximately fifty years left on the leases. should I be concerned?
A lease is a right to use the premises for a prescribed time frame. As a lease shortens the saleability of the lease deteriorates and it becomes more expensive to acquire a lease extension. This is why it is often a good idea to extend the lease term. More often than not it is difficulties arise selling premises with a short lease as mortgage companies may be reluctant to lend money on properties of this type. Lease enfranchisement can be a protracted process. We recommend you seek professional assistance from a conveyancer and surveyor with experience in this field.
I acquired a studio flat in Clitheroe, conveyancing was carried out 10 years ago. Can you please calculate a probable premium for a statutory lease extension? Equivalent flats in Clitheroe with an extended lease are worth £211,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 per annum. The lease terminates on 21st October 2089
You have 68 years unexpired we estimate the premium for your lease extension to be between £9,500 and £11,000 plus professional fees.
The suggested premium range that we have given is 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 this information in tribunal or court proceedings. There may be other issues that need to be taken into account and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
Our financial adviser has suggested using their lawyer for our conveyancing in Clitheroe - Surely it’s better to just instruct them?
You need to establish if the estate agent is recommending a property lawyer or introducing to a property lawyer. There are plenty of Clitheroe selling agents who recommend two or three Clitheroe conveyancing firms and get nothing from it.
