Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Irlam

We opted for a high street solicitor for my conveyancing in Irlam yesterday. After carefully reading the Terms and Conditions I seeI am liable for fees even if the sale doesn't happen. Should I go with them or choose an internet conveyancing company promoting no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Irlam?

It is usually a trade off in that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the fee levels will tend to be be higher to offset the cases that do not go ahead. Also remember that these offerings generally do not protect you from expenses for instance Irlam conveyancing search charges.

Please could you suggest a Nationwide Building Society accepted Irlam conveyancing lawyer who can have us moved in within a short deadline? Am I best advised to unstruct a local Irlam solicitor or a web based comparison site?

Appoint the lawyer that genuine.

I have been told that property searches are the main cause of obstruction in Irlam house deals. Is this right?

The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) has noted the determinations of research by MoveWithUs that conveyancing searches do not figure amongst the common causes of delays during the legal transfer of property. Local searches are unlikely to feature in any holding up conveyancing in Irlam.

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

If the lease is recorded at the land registry - and most are in Irlam - then the leasehold title will always include the basic details 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 Irlam, conveyancing formalities finalised 10 years ago. How much will my lease extension cost? Similar flats in Irlam with over 90 years remaining are worth £185,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £65 yearly. The lease runs out on 21st October 2083

With only 60 years remaining on your lease the likely cost is going to span between £20,000 and £23,000 plus costs.

The figure above a general guide to costs for renewing a lease, but we cannot give you a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. You should not use this information in a Notice of Claim or as an informal offer. There may be other issues that need to be considered and clearly you want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. Please do not take any other action based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.

Is planning consent necessary to change a single dwelling into two flats in Irlam? This has occurred to a house adjacent to a friend in Irlam and was not aware of it happening until the works were finished.

Planning permission is needed for splitting a single house in Irlam into flats but probably not for converting once again to single dwelling-house so, simply put, yes,a it is required.
