I am buying my first flat in Doncaster benefiting from help to buy. The sellers would not reduce the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of fixtures and fittings instead.

Do you have any top tips for leasehold conveyancing in Doncaster from the point of view of expediting the sale process?
- A significant proportion of the frustration in leasehold conveyancing in Doncaster can be bypassed if you appoint lawyers the minute your agents start marketing the property and request that they start to put together the leasehold documentation needed by the buyers’ conveyancers. The majority of landlords or Management Companies in Doncaster levy fees for providing management packs for a leasehold home. You or your lawyers should find out the fee that they propose to charge. The management pack can be applied for as soon as you have a buyer, thus accelerating the process. The average time it takes to receive management information is three weeks. It is the most frequent cause of delay in leasehold conveyancing in Doncaster. If you hold a share in a the Management Company, you should make sure that you are holding the original share document. Arranging a re-issued share certificate can be a time consuming process and slows down many a Doncaster conveyancing deal. If a duplicate share is necessary, you should approach the company officers or managing agents (if relevant) for this as soon as possible. If you have had conflict with your landlord or managing agents it is essential that these are settled before the property is put on the market. The buyers and their solicitors will be nervous about purchasing a property where there is an ongoing dispute. You may have to bite the bullet and discharge any arrears of service charge or resolve the dispute prior to completion of the sale. It is therefore preferable to have any dispute settled prior to the contract papers being issued to the buyers’ solicitors. You will still have to reveal particulars of the dispute to the buyers, but it is clearly preferable to present the dispute as historic rather than ongoing.
I am the registered owner of a 2 bed flat in Doncaster, conveyancing was carried out in 2003. Can you let me have an estimate of the premium that my landlord can legally expect in return for granting a renewal of my lease? Comparable properties in Doncaster with an extended lease are worth £216,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £50 charged once a year. The lease expires on 21st October 2095
