I do hope you can assist me. My Easingwold solicitor is informing me me that she is duty bound toapply for Easingwold conveyancing searches resulting from the fact thatthe firm are on the Lloydsconveyancing panel. These Easingwold checks cost a lot of money can this be avoided?
Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. Given that you are taking out a loan with a lender your conveyancer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your property lawyer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your bank’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook provisions . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Easingwold conveyancing searches.

Your property lawyer will review the registered title as conveyancing in Easingwold can occasionally reveal restrictions in the title documents which prevent categories of changes or require the consent of another owner. Some additions require local authority planning permissions and approval in accordance building regulations. Some locations are designated conservation areas and special planning restrictions apply which frequently prevent or impact extensions. You should check these things with a surveyor prior to committing yourself to a purchase.

I recently had an offer agreed on an apartment in Easingwold. My mortgage broker pressured me to appoint their conveyancer. I paid an on account payment of £225. Soon after, the conveyancing practitioner called me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the Clydesdale conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?
You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the Clydesdale panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.

I am a negotiator for a busy estate agency in Easingwold where we see a number of flat sales put at risk due to leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received conflicting advice from local Easingwold conveyancing solicitors. Could you confirm whether the seller of a flat can commence the lease extension process for the purchaser on completion of the sale?
Provided that the seller has been the owner for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the proposed purchaser need not have to wait 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done before, or simultaneously with completion of the disposal of the property.
An alternative approach is to agree the lease extension with the freeholder either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the purchaser.

Please note that where the lease has less than eighty years it will impact the value of the flat. Check with your mortgage company that they are content with residual term of the lease. Leases with less than 80 years remaining means that you will most likely have to extend the lease at some point and it is worth finding out what this would cost. For most Easingwoldlease extensions you would be required to have been the owner of the residence for 24 months in order to be entitled to extend the lease. Is anyone aware of any major works in the planning that will likely increase the maintenance charges? Best to be warned if changing the roof or some other significant cost is coming up that will be shared by the tenants and could well dramatically impact the level of the service fees or result in a specific invoice.
