I have given 2 months notice to my current landlord and have to vacate my let out property in Enderby by 29/10/2025. Conveyancing on my purchase has just started. How realistic is it to complete in 4 weeks as don't want to have to find temporary accommodation?
The normal practice is not to give notice for your lease until you have exchanged. Assuming that you have not already done so, update to your lawyer and request that they seek the assistance the owners lawyers, try to an acceptable time-line that all parties will look towards
My partner and I are selling our home in Enderby and according to the buyers it appears that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. A local conveyancer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers instructed an internet conveyancing firm rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Enderby. We have lived in Enderby for three years we know of no issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing solicitor currently acting for you. Are they able to advise? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same illness)
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a house I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Enderby is the location of the property. Can you offer any guidance?
Flying freeholds in Enderby are rare but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Enderby you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Enderby may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.

Can you please explain what my options are if my Enderby conveyancing searches reveals negative results?
Normally, most issues arising from Enderby conveyancing search results can be handled before completion or indemnity insurance can be put in place. You need to remember that regardless of the fact that you are purchasing the premises and might be content to live with the search results, your lender may not, and ultimately they have the final say.
