What happens if my lawyer’s firm is suspended from the Kent Reliance Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Dersingham?

The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

Given that I will soon spend 450k on a garden flat in Dersingham I would like to talk to a lawyer concerning thehome move in advance of giving the go ahead to the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?

This is something that we recommend - we would be delighted to talk to you we do not take any clients on without you speaking to the lawyer who will be carrying out your property ownership legalities in Dersingham.There is no ‘factory style conveyancing’ - every client is an important individual, not a case number. The solicitors that we put you in touch with believe that the figure you are quoted for your conveyancing in Dersingham should be the figure that you end up paying.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Dersingham. Before I set the wheels in motion I want to be sure as to the number of years remaining on the lease.

Assuming the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Dersingham - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.

I purchased a split level flat in Dersingham, conveyancing was carried out in 2002. Can you work out an approximate cost of a lease extension? Similar flats in Dersingham with an extended lease are worth £185,000. The ground rent is £65 yearly. The lease runs out on 21st October 2084

With only 60 years left to run the likely cost is going to be between £20,000 and £23,000 as well as costs.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we are not able to supply a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be considered and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Neither should you move forward based on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.

I have just placed an offer on an apartment in Dersingham and the estate agent that we are dealing with suggested his conveyancing practitioner. He quoted £1000 including VAT and disbursements. Does this sound reasonable?

You should not rely on one quote. One should seek like-for-like quotes for your conveyancing in Dersingham. Then pick one that you are comfortable with and crucially, is on the approved list of the bank that you have applied for a mortgage from.
