My husband and I are FTB’s - agreed a price, yet the estate agent told us that the vendor will only proceed if we instruct the agent's recommended solicitors as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a family conveyancer accustomed to conveyancing in Guisborough

Avoid the agents and go straight to the sellers and make sure they understand (a)you are serious buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you intend to instruct your own,trusted Guisborough conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will give their estate agent a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing thresholds demanded by senior management.
I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in Guisborough. Before diving in I would like to find out the number of years remaining on the lease.
If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and 99.9% are in Guisborough - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
