Finally, a loan agreement from Santander for the remortgage of my 4 bedroom flat is due any day now. Are you able to propose a low cost conveyancing lawyer in Hyde?

You are on the wrong site if you are in need of the lowest fares for conveyancing in Hyde. We can offer you affordable conveyancing but we do not work with the cheapest lawyers. Do not be seduced by brokers offering the bait of £100 conveyancing in Hyde. In your best case scenario, in deciding on low cost conveyancing, you will get your money’s worth and at worst you will end up paying a lot in additional fees and still not receive the service you were looking for.

My colleague advised me that where I am purchasing in Hyde I should carry out a Neighbourhood, Planning and Local Amenity Search. Can you explain what the purpose of this search is?

A search of this type is sometimes included in the estimate for your Hyde conveyancing searches. It is not a small document of more than thirty pages, listing and setting out significant information about Hyde around the property and the people living there. It includes an Aerial Photograph, Planning Applications, Land Use, Mobile Phone Masts, Rights of Way, the local Housing Market, Council Tax Banding, the type of People living in the area, the dominant type of Housing, the Average Property Price, Crime details, Local Education with plans and statistics, Local Amenities and other useful data regarding Hyde.

How does conveyancing in Hyde differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build or newly converted property in Hyde come to us having been asked by the housebuilder to exchange contracts and commit to the purchase even before the property is finished. This is because builders in Hyde usually buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct conveyancing solicitors as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Hyde or who has acted in the same development.

Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a quick, no chain conveyancing. Hyde is the location of the property. What do you suggest?

Flying freeholds in Hyde are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Hyde you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds diligently. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Hyde may ascertain 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 premises.

Having had my offer accepted I require leasehold conveyancing in Hyde. Before diving in I would like to find out the remaining lease term.

If the lease is registered - and most are in Hyde - 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.

I own a 2 bed flat in Hyde, conveyancing was carried out in 1999. Can you let me have an estimated range of the fair premium for a lease extension? Comparable flats in Hyde with an extended lease are worth £191,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £55 invoiced every year. The lease finishes on 21st October 2077

With just 53 years unexpired the likely cost is going to span between £27,600 and £31,800 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we cannot give you the actual costs in the absence of comprehensive investigations. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There are no doubt other concerns that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward placing reliance on this information before seeking the advice of a professional.
