Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Grappenhall

Me and my fiance are buying a 3 bedroom apartment in Grappenhall with a mortgage. We like our Grappenhall conveyancer, however the lender says she’s not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the bank panel conveyancing practices or keep our Grappenhall conveyancing practitioner and pay for one of their panel firms to act for them. This feels very unfair; is there anything we can do?

Unfortunately,no. Your mortgage offer is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the bank’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your Grappenhall conveyancing solicitor to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.

Me and my fiancee are buying our first home. The conveyancing practitioner has calledto see if we wish to order additional conveyancing searches. Frankly we have no idea as to what's relevant for conveyancing in Grappenhall

The quantity and type of Grappenhall conveyancing searches depends primarily on the premises, the location, the possibility of any of these risks, your knowledge of the area and risks, your general appetite to risk.

As someone clueless as to the Grappenhall conveyancing process what’s the number one tip you can impart for the ownership transfer in Grappenhall

Not many law firms or advisers will tell you this but conveyancing in Grappenhall or throughout Cheshire is an adversarial process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is lots of opportunity for conflict between you and other parties involved in the legal transfer of property. For example, the seller, property agent and on occasion your bank. Selecting a lawyer for your conveyancing in Grappenhall is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the transaction whose responsibility is to protect your best interests and to keep you safe.

There is a distinct emergence of a "blame" culture- someone has to be at fault for the process taking so long. We recommend that you your first instinct should be to trust your solicitor above all other parties in the conveyancing process.

I own a leasehold flat in Grappenhall. Conveyancing and Nationwide Building Society mortgage organised. A letter has just been received from someone saying they have taken over the freehold. Attached was a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1994. The conveyancing practitioner in Grappenhall who previously acted has long since retired. Do I pay?

The first thing you should do is make enquiries of the Land Registry to be sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is in fact the new freeholder. It is not necessary to incur the fees of a Grappenhall conveyancing solicitor to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for less than a fiver. Rest assured that in any event, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 the limitation period for recovery of ground rent is six years.

I inherited a 1st floor flat in Grappenhall, conveyancing was carried out September 2009. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease?

With just 60 years left to run we estimate the premium for your lease extension to range between £20,000 and £23,000 plus legals.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on a more accurate figure in the absence of comprehensive investigations. Do not use this information in tribunal or court proceedings.
