My previous conveyancer has given a fee estimate £1700 for no sale no fee conveyancing in Croston. I am looking to sell a newly refurbished property for £150,000. Is this overpriced? Is it in excess of the average fee for conveyancing in Croston?

I have todaybeen informed that Arc property Solicitors have been shut down. They carried out my conveyancing in Croston for a purchase of a freehold house 9 months ago. How can I check that the property is not still registered in the name of the former proprietor?
The easiest method to check if the property is registered to you, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Croston conveyancing specialists.
Over the last few months I have been searching for a flat up to £195,000 and found one round the corner in Croston I like with amenity areas and transport links nearby, the downside is that it only has 52 years on the lease. There is not much else in Croston for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a grave error buying a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the shortness of the lease will be problematic. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the property for a minimum of 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 current lease and have £0 ground rent by law. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor regarding this.

It is not impossible in leasehold conveyancing in Croston to find Conveyancing in Croston in a minority of cases reveals that the lease requires the leasehold owners to insure their individual flats rather than the freeholder insuring the complete building - which is clearly better.

Insuring your residence is no help when it comes to rebuilding after a fire if the other flat cannot be reconstructed due to lack of insurance cover.
