My partner’s sister is a conveyancer. I hope that I'll be able to get mate’s fee for conveyancing, However if that does not come through, what level of figure would I typically be looking at for conveyancing in Falconwood?
Do contrast pricing. Do use our comparison tool on this site. The fees will vary but service levels do are distinct between property lawyers as is true with most professions.
I completed on my house on 12 October and the transaction details is not yet on the land registry website. Should I be concerned? My conveyancing solicitor in Falconwood advises it will be dealt with inside ten days. Are titles in Falconwood uniquely lengthy to register?
As far as conveyancing in Falconwood is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timeframes can vary according to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry have to notify any interested parties. At present in the region of three quarters of such applications are completed within 12 days but occasionally there can be longer delays. Registration takes place once the new owner is living at the premises so an expedited registration is not always top priority but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your conveyancer could speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.

As usual with these online conveyancers you need to read ALL the small print - did you notice the extra charge for dealing with the mortgage?
I am employed by a reputable estate agency in Falconwood where we have witnessed a few flat sales derailed as a result of leases having less than 80 years remaining. I have received contradictory information from local Falconwood conveyancing firms. Can you confirm whether the seller of a flat can start the lease extension formalities for the purchaser on completion of the sale?
As long as 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. The benefit of this is that the buyer need not have to sit tight for 2 years to extend their lease. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment needs to be completed prior to, 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.
Having spent years of negotiations we cannot agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Falconwood. Can we issue an application to the Residential Property Tribunal Service?
Where there is a absentee freeholder or where there is disagreement about what the lease extension should cost, under the relevant legislation it is possible to make an application to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) to decide the amount due.
An example of a Lease Extension matter before the tribunal for a Falconwood property is 103a Footscray Road in January 2014. The tribunal determines that the premium payable for the extended lease should be £34,500 according to the expert witness valuation calculation This case affected 1 flat.
