We are intent on selling our property in Cookham and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was built land that was not decontaminated. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the buyers used a national conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Cookham. Having lived in Cookham for six years we know that this is a non issue. Do we contact our local Authority to get clarification need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. What do they say? You need to enquire of your lawyer before you do anything.

It has been three months following my purchase conveyancing in Cookham took place. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £160,000. 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 for a flat up to £235,500 and found one close by in Cookham I like with amenity areas and transport links in the vicinity, the downside is that it's only got 51 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Cookham suitable, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake buying a short lease?
Should you require a home loan that many years will be a potential deal breaker. Reduce the offer by the anticipated lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for at least 2 years you can ask them to commence the lease extension formalities and then assign 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 solicitor regarding this.

There are plenty of houses in Cookham on private lanes. My wife and I are purchasing such a house. What are the pros and cons of purchasing a residence on a privately owned road?
Cookham conveyancing solicitors will be familiar with transacting homeson unadopted roads. The property lawyer will review the title to identify any rights or responsibilities. In many cases there is a residents association that residents make annual payments to maintain the road. Where there is one, the road should be maintained and appear better than publicly adopted.
